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...

The aim of our research is to evaluate whether there a relationship between the degree hydronephrosis and, size and location stones in ureter patients with ureteral stones, computed tomography (CT). 105 who applied Malatya Training Research Hospital complaint renal colic underwent CT scan were included study. Hydronephrosis was evaluated by using system developed Society Fetal Urology. Stone si...

A 37-year-old male was referred to our hospital due to an abnormal ultrasound report of the right kidney in a regular health examination. The patient was asymptomatic and did not report fever, flank pain or dysuria. Repeated ultrasonography at our hospital revealed a hypoechoic area in the right central renal sinus, suggesting right hydronephrosis, but the obstructive site could not be found (F...

INTRODUCTION Ureteral obstruction is a potentially serious complication after ureteroscopy. Postoperative imaging with intravenous urogram and CT has been described as a means to detect asymptomatic or "silent" obstruction. We sought to evaluate the use of renal ultrasound to diagnose hydronephrosis after ureteroscopy in a large, contemporary series. MATERIALS AND METHODS Of the 438 ureterosc...

INTRODUCTION Even though it is uncommon, uterine prolapse can cause compression of ureters and bilateral hydronephrosis, predisposing to arterial hypertension and renal failure. Hydronephrosis consequent to cystocele and to vaginal prolapse is even rarer. CASE REPORT This paper reports on a 59 year-old patient, Caucasian, obese and hysterectomized who presented complete vaginal prolapse with ...
