Patient's question:
I am 33 weeks pregnant, and the ultrasound shows fluid accumulation in the right kidney.Doctor's answer:
In your case, this is a manifestation of fetal renal hydrops. This could be normal or related to congenital abnormalities of the fetal urinary system. It is recommended that you maintain a calm mood and get adequate rest. Some fetuses may have this condition due to underdeveloped urinary function, which is a normal occurrence and does not require concern. Regular follow-up after the child is born is sufficient. If there is repeated accumulation of fluid, the possibility of a congenital abnormality should be considered.
