Patient's question:

Newborn 12 days Hello, is 8mm of effusion serious? Will it gradually disappear? What kind of assistance do you need: Hello, is 8mm of effusion serious? Will it gradually disappear?

Doctor's answer:

Urinary obstruction can recur at any location in the urinary tract and can be unilateral or bilateral. The degree of obstruction can be complete or incomplete, and both can lead to hydronephrosis after persisting for a certain period of time. Any narrowing or obstruction of the urinary tract at any location, as well as dysfunction of normal neuromuscular function, can cause recurrent urinary obstruction, resulting in urinary tract obstruction. Above the obstruction, the pressure gradually increases due to poor urine discharge, leading to dilation of the lumen. Ultimately, this can cause kidney hydronephrosis, expansion, thinning of renal parenchyma, and decline in renal function. If bilateral obstruction occurs, the consequences of uremia are severe.
