A member asked:
My baby is 15 days old. before and after his birth, in both usg reports say that he has mild pelvietatic kindeys. is it something to worry about?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: It is a dilation of the renal pelvis. Comon finding in fetal ultrasounds or just after birth. The majority of babies with this finding will improve over time and this finding will disappear. If the baby develops an urinary infection and has persistent findings on ultrasound it might mean an obstruction.
