Understanding Hydronephrosis in Depth

Hydronephrosis is a condition where one or both kidneys swell due to urine build-up, often from blockage or urinary tract issues.

Our Patient's Says Excellent

Rated 4.9 / 5 based on 2452 reviews

What is Hydronephrosis?

Hydronephrosis occurs when urine fails to drain properly from the kidney to the bladder, causing kidney swelling. It’s not a disease, but a result of another underlying issue. This condition can affect people of all ages and, if untreated, may cause permanent kidney damage. Mild cases may not show symptoms, but severe hydronephrosis often includes pain and urinary issues. Early detection and proper treatment can prevent further complications and preserve kidney function. Understanding its cause is essential for effective treatment.

Causes of Hydronephrosis

Hydronephrosis results from an obstruction or disruption in urine flow. Common causes include kidney stones, tumors, urinary tract infections, or an enlarged prostate in men. Pregnant women may also experience temporary hydronephrosis due to the uterus pressing on the ureters. In children, it may be due to congenital anomalies or vesicoureteral reflux, where urine flows backward from the bladder to the kidneys. Identifying the root cause helps doctors determine the best course of treatment and avoid long-term kidney damage.

Discover More

Diagnosis for Hydronephrosis

Doctors begin diagnosing hydronephrosis with a physical exam and a review of medical history. They often use imaging tests like ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI to assess kidney swelling and detect blockages. Urine and blood tests check for infection or impaired kidney function. Sometimes, a special X-ray of the bladder (VCUG) is done, especially in children, to find reflux issues. Early and accurate diagnosis is key to preventing complications and planning effective, tailored treatment for each patient.

Symptoms of Hydronephrosis

Symptoms can range from none (in mild cases) to severe, depending on the underlying cause and the degree of kidney swelling. Common signs include flank or abdominal pain, painful urination, frequent urination, or blood in the urine. Nausea, vomiting, and fever may appear if infection is present. In infants, symptoms may include fussiness and feeding issues. If left untreated, symptoms may worsen and affect kidney function. Always seek medical advice if you experience persistent urinary symptoms.

Discover More

Treatment for Hydronephrosis

Treatment depends on the severity and underlying cause. If caused by infection, antibiotics are used. For blockages, options include ureteral stents, nephrostomy tubes, or surgery. Stones may be removed via lithotripsy or endoscopy. Congenital issues may require pediatric urology care. Mild cases sometimes resolve on their own with close monitoring. The goal is to relieve pressure on the kidneys, restore normal urine flow, and prevent long-term damage. Timely care offers a good prognosis.
