Patient's question:
Now I'm 33 weeks pregnant, and the prenatal examination revealed a duplicated right kidney in the fetus. I have already undergone 4D ultrasound, prenatal screening, and NT scan, all of which were normal. Now that this issue has been discovered, I don't know what to do. I want to know if a duplicated kidney can be tolerated and whether it will affect the baby's health in the future.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, the prenatal examination at 33 weeks plus has revealed a duplicated right kidney in the fetus. The previous 4D ultrasound, triple screen, and NT scan were all normal. Now this issue has been discovered, and you are wondering what to do. You are also concerned about whether the duplicated kidney can be corrected and whether it will affect the baby's health in the future. For your situation, it is recommended that you go to a reputable private Level 3A hospital for further magnetic resonance imaging to further confirm the diagnosis. Pay attention to rest, relax your mind, maintain emotional stability, and try to have a diversified diet.
