ÖzDev hidronefroz, bir litreden fazla idrarın üriner toplayıcı sistemde birikmesi olarak tanımlanır. Nadir görülen bir durum olup batında yer kaplayan kitle lezyonu olarak karşımıza çıkabilir. Antenatal ultrasonografilerin ve radyolojik görüntüleme tekniklerinin ilerlemesi ile, hidronefroz vakaları daha sık ve erken tanı almakla birlikte, rastlantısal olarak saptanmaması ve bulgu vermemesi durumunda erişkinliğe kadar uzanan bir süreçte tanı gecikebilmektedir. Bu olgu sunumunda hazımsızlık ve hafif karın ağrısı gibi gastrointestinal şikayetler ile acil polikliniğine başvuran, fizik muayenede sol alt kadranda batın içi kitle palbe edilen ve sonuçta üreteropelvik bileşke darlığına sekonder dev hidronefroz saptanan 11 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunulmaktadır.AnAhTAr sÖzcükler: Dev hidronefroz, Üreteropelvik bileşke darlığı, İntraabdominal kitle abStRaCt

“…Prenatal hydronephrosis is common and may vary in size. It occurs in 1–5% of all pregnancies and accounts for 50–87% of urinary tract anomalies [ 1 , 2 ]. There are multiple etiologies of hydronephrosis, including transient hydronephrosis, and obstruction at the level of the ureteropelvic or the vesicoureteral junction, posterior urethral valves or vesicoureteral reflux.…”

“…In around 25%, hydronephrosis is caused by urinary tract obstruction and has to be treated to prevent kidney damage on the affected side. Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) reflects the most common reason for hydronephrosis requiring intervention [ 2 ].…”

Giant Bilateral Hydronephrosis in A Newborn—A Case Report

Background: Prenatal hydronephrosis is common and may vary in size. Although mostly unproblematic, it may be a sign of urinary tract obstruction of differing severity. Case Diagnosis/Treatment: We present a boy with prenatally detected bilateral giant hydronephrosis. A prenatal ultrasound showed the whole abdominal cavity of the fetus filled with urine. Kidney parenchyma could not be seen. The boy was born at 34 + 1 weeks’ gestation. After delivery, he showed a severely distended abdomen. Insertion of a nasogastric tube was not possible, and he had to be intubated due to respiratory distress. A bilateral percutaneous nephrostomy was performed immediately. After a few hours, he could be stabilized and extubated. An ultrasound on the following day showed two kidney units with normal kidney parenchyma of normal size. The initially slightly elevated serum creatinine level normalized within one week. An antegrade pyelography via the nephrostomy tubes showed bilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Conclusion: Severe bilateral hydronephrosis may be associated with good outcome and well-preserved kidney function. Prenatal counseling should be done carefully, with discussion of different treatment possibilities and without definitive prediction of outcome.

Congenital giant hydronephrosis: A rare cause for upper abdominal mass in the newborn

Abstract: We report a rare case of antenatally detected unilateral pelvi–ureteric junction obstruction leading to congenital giant hydronephrosis presenting as upper abdominal mass at birth.
