Abstract:

Around 20% of pathology diagnosed by antenatal ultra sound are renal pathology, the commonest is dilated renal pelvis. But the question is “Is the hydronephrotic kidney considered to be obstructed, primarily because the tools we use to measure or define obstruction are misleading? Are we treating dilated images or managing true obstruction?”. There is no single diagnostic test that is definitive for distinguishing obstructive from nonobstructive cases It is evident that obstructive uropathies are dynamic and unpredictable. In this presentation we will highlight the significance of antenatally diagnosed hydronephrosis and the ant natal and post-natal management of hydronephrosis.
