Summary A rare case of hermaphroditism accompanied with ectopic sigmoid kidney in cross‐bred calf is reported. Findings revealed fused kidneys located near urinary bladder, and presence of uterus, vagina, penis and testicles. Both urinary and genital defects seemed to occur in combination and to be interrelated.
