Mild hydronephrosis
Hi My self Kavya, from Bangalore Age 25 years. I have only one kidney (right) from birth. I had undergone surgery for 2 times pyeoplasty. First surgery in 1999 & 2nd in 2004. After 13 years got a pain in the place of surgery. I had completed all the necessary tests which prescribed by urologist. In the Ultra sound scan the impression is Mild Hydronephrosis is diagnosed. Could anyone suggest me what are the treatment required. Is it mandatory to undergo a surgery again. Is there any permanent solution for this. Waiting for the response at the earliest.

Hydronephrosis may be residual hydronephrosis. Compare serial USG KUB at three monthly interval to see any change in the AP diameter of renal pelvis and cortical thickness of each pole. A Tc-99DTPA scan will also help in decision.
