The concomitance of horseshoe kidney and abdominal aortic aneurysm is rare but represents an interesting challenge for vascular surgeons. The trouble is greater if the diagnosis is formulated intraoperatively and specially if it is an emergency operation for aortic rupture or fissuration. The surgeon's aim is to get to the aneurysm collar without damaging the kidney, the renal arteries or the urinary tract that often have an anomalous development. The authors make a review of the literature and describe three cases occurred out of 2558 prosthetic reconstructions due to abdominal aortic aneurysm.
