A member asked:
Foetal right kidney shows mild pelvo-calyctasis, appears to be physiological. what does this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Definition: Essentially the fetus right kidney is shown to be slightly dilated which can happen when urine is not exiting the kidney in a normal fashion. The term "physiologic" is defined as a normal variant which means it is very mild and should resolve as the baby grows. They will follow this closely.
