What are the short and long term risks in a newborn with unilateral renal agenesis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No problem: Many people go through life with this defect and never know they had it.We only need one as long as it stays healthy. I counsel people to avoid sports or activities that would put the remaining kidney at risk.In the us that includes contact sports, horse riding etc.
