Many possibilities?: There are many diseases in children that can exhibit the type of ultrasound result you describe. These include: acute and chronic renal failure, hydronephrosis, urinary tract infection, kidney infection, hemolytic uremic syndrome, and post strep glomerulonephritis. You need to discuss the results of the imaging with your doctor.
