Abstract:
Contribution of 14 patients with Unilateral Total Multicystic Renal Dysplasia treated with conservative criteria, with particular emphasis in the absence of clinical complications, as well as the natural tendency to involution of the affected organs. Five dysplastic kidneys disappeared in the ultrasound, 4 decreased in size, 3 remained the same and 2 have been removed. Review of the literature and discussion of all the reasons why nephrectomy was traditionally indicated, explaining the reasons why we support an expecting attitude.
