Correlation of Hydronephrosis Index to Society of Fetal Urology Hydronephrosis Scale
Purpose. We seek to correlate conventional hydronephrosis (HN) grade and hydronephrosis index (HI). Methods. We examined 1207 hydronephrotic kidneys by ultrasound. HN was classified by Society of Fetal Urology guidelines. HN was then gauged using HI, a reproducible, standardized, and dimensionless measurement of renal area. We then calculated average HI for each HN grade. Results. Comparing HI ...
متن کاملHydronephrosis Index as a New Method for the Evaluation and Follow-up of Fetal Hydronephrosis
Background: The present study was conducted to compare the efficiency of hydronephrosis index (HI) with those of pelvic anteroposterior (AP) diameter and parenchymal thickness in the diagnosis of fetal hydronephrosis in the prenatal period, as well as 1, 6, and 12 months after birth. Methods: This study was conducted on pregnant women with the pregnancy age of > 30 weeks whose fetus was suspect...
متن کاملAdriamycin-induced fetal hydronephrosis.
INTRODUCTION At the end of pregnancy, the amniotic fluid (AF) depends basically on renal function, corresponding to fetal urine. Changes in AF, especially oligohydramnios, are reported in association with fetal hydronephrosis (FH). The experimental model using adriamycin in pregnant female rats has a teratogenic effect and has been classically employed to study esophageal atresia. Nevertheless,...
متن کاملAssessment and Management of Fetal Hydronephrosis
1. Differentiate genitourinary abnormalities associated with hydronephrosis detected on fetal ultrasonography. 2. Describe the type of fetal hydronephrosis that requires a complete uroradiologic evaluation. 3. Characterize the complete postnatal uroradiologic evaluation of significant fetal hydronephrosis. 4. Delineate the factor that sets the timetable for postnatal uroradiologic evaluation. 5...
متن کاملHydronephrosis
Hydronephrosis means dilation of the pelvis of the kidney by urine which has accumulated, because of obstruction of the urinary tract at some point distal to the pelvis, most commonly the pelvi-ureteral junction. If the obstruction be at a lower level, the ureter becomes dilated first, and the kidney is involved later. Occasionally the obstruction is confined to one or more of the minor calyces...
