A member asked:
Enlarged left kidney. ectopic cross fused kidneys. what does the enlarged left kidney mean? no hydronephrosis or calcium build up and no stones.

Expected: This means that both of your kidneys are on the same side of your body. This would make a large kidney on one side. With no hydronephrosis or stones, you should be ok.
