Abstract EN
A 12-year-old boy presented to the clinic of ophthalmology because of watering and discharge from his left lower eyelid.
The inspection examination revealed an orifice that was associated with congenital lacrimal fistula (CLF).
He underwent a complete ophthalmologic and systemic evaluation to explore possible associated findings.
Systemic evaluation revealed multiple renal anomalies: right renal agenesis and left ectopic pelvic kidney.
This case is unique because this is the first reported case of CLF accompanied with ectopic pelvic kidney in the literature.
