How long does neonatal hydronephrosis disappear after birth

Patient's question:

Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've also noticed some swelling in my body. I feel completely exhausted. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's kidney disease. Could you please tell me how long it takes for neonatal hydronephrosis to disappear after birth?

Doctor's answer:

Hydronephrosis is mainly caused by kidney infections, anatomical abnormalities, or intestinal obstructions such as stones leading to kidney accumulation of fluid. Neonatal hydronephrosis can manifest as excessive crying, fever, poor mental state, and abnormal urination. The recovery time for neonatal hydronephrosis needs to be evaluated based on the location and extent of the hydronephrosis for a comprehensive assessment. It is recommended to actively cooperate with medical staff during treatment, believing that recovery will be quick.
