Realtime sonographic diagnosis of fetal dysplastic kidney
Abstract:
A case of unilateral renal dysplasia was diagnosed in utero using realtime scanning. The diagnosis was confirmed neonatally and the affected kidney was surgically removed. Pathologic findings were consistent with the features of this malformation. The echographic characteristics of renal dysplasia and the differential diagnosis are described. The potential uses of ultrasonography in the diagnosis and follow-up of pregnancies associated with or at risk of renal malformations are discussed.
