“…Autopsy cases diagnosed with prune belly syndrome with complete obstruction of urethra revealed that the kidneys were histologically normal at GW 12-14, suggesting that renal dysplasia is caused by high hydrostatic pressure owing to urinary retention after GW 15-16 [9,10]. When urinary flow impairment occurs later in gestation, or when obstruction is partial, renal damage would be less profound, resulting in congenital hydronephrosis and hydroureter [11]. The difference between MCDK and ORD is considered to be as follows: in MCDK, pyelocalyceal occlusion early in fetal life would result in the formation of multiple cystic lesions and disturbed development of the renal parenchyma without establishment of the pelvic system [1,12].…”
