Transplantation of a horseshoe kidney rarely has been reported. We report a case of successful en bloc transplantation of a horseshoe kidney. The kidney could not be divided because of a complex vascular situation in the isthmus region. The recipient was discharged from our hospital with normal kidney function 12 days postoperatively. We recommend the use of kidneys with anatomical malformations for transplantation.
