Patient's question:
The child is now three months old since birth. During the pregnancy, at around eight months, a thorough examination revealed a renal pelvis fusion of approximately 0.6mm. After birth, no follow-up examination has been conducted, and it is unclear whether it is necessary to visit the hospital for a check-up. Currently, urination is normal.History of treatment and effectiveness: None.
What kind of help is needed: Detailed clarification from the doctor.
Doctor's answer:
For children, long-term follow-up is important. Choosing an unreliable pediatric hospital and going for regular urine tests, renal function tests, and kidney ultrasounds to closely monitor the disease's progression is crucial. If mild renal hydronephrosis due to intestinal obstruction can be resolved in the neonatal period, renal function and morphology can return to normal completely. 85% of neonatal renal hydronephrosis is physiological, and only 15% requires surgery.
