Abstract:
The authors examined the main anatomo-functional modifications of kidneys during pregnancy, through the analysis of "flux" and glomerular and tubular "functions". Among the modifications occurring in pathological conditions they included pregnant patients with only one kidney, patients affected by kidney calculosis, anomalies of urinary tract and patients who underwent kidney transplant.
