What should be done if the left kidney of the fetus is absent or underdeveloped?

Patient's question:

Fetal left renal agenesis or dysplasia

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, it is still advisable to give it serious consideration. From my analytical perspective, it is better to address it early. If the child is born, the child will bear a heavy burden themselves. They already have one less kidney, and it is necessary to ensure that their kidneys do not encounter problems for decades. Otherwise, a kidney transplant may be required, and kidney transplants come with the risk of rejection.
