If hydronephrosis resolved completely afterward you should be fine without any long term complication thanks to the early diagnosis of mild hydronephrosis with routine antenatal ultrasound. You should have good kidney function with a normal kidney ultrasound at this time. Take care.

It takes time for the hydronephrosis to resolve for you had the valves since birth. Give it at least6-12 months
