Hydronephrosis is a medical condition characterised by the swelling of one or both kidneys due to an accumulation of urine that cannot be effectively drained. This abnormal buildup can be caused by several factors, the most common being urinary tract obstruction, which could result from kidney stones, tumours, an enlarged prostate, or congenital abnormalities. Another cause of hydronephrosis is vesicoureteral reflux, a condition where urine flows backwards from the bladder into the kidneys. Additionally, during pregnancy, the growing uterus may press on the ureters and obstruct urine flow, leading to hydronephrosis.
Hydronephrosis can occur in individuals of all ages, and prompt diagnosis and treatment by Doctors specialising in Hydronephrosis Treatment are essential to prevent permanent kidney damage. Apollo Hospitals in Lucknow with its team of trained doctors for Hydronephrosis treatment is well-equipped to manage this condition.
There are several types of classifications of hydronephrosis:
Severity of Hydronephrosis: Ranges from mild to severe swelling of the kidney(s).
Unilateral vs Bilateral: The condition can affect one (unilateral) or both kidneys (bilateral).
Acute vs Chronic: It can be sudden/acute or a long-standing chronic issue.
Antenatal Hydronephrosis: This is commonly detected during prenatal ultrasounds in infants. This usually resolves on its own before birth, but some cases may persist after birth
Recognising the symptoms of hydronephrosis helps in seeking timely medical assistance. Symptoms include:
Intense or sudden pain in the back or side, especially after drinking fluids
Painful or frequent urination
Difficulty emptying the bladder
Nausea and vomiting
Blood in Urine
Fever
At Apollo Hospitals in Lucknow, the doctors for hydronephrosis treatment utilise several state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and procedures to diagnose the condition:
Renal Ultrasound: The most common diagnostic procedure using sound waves to create images of the kidneys.
Computed Tomography Scan: provide detailed cross-sectional images, helping to identify any urinary tract blockages or obstructions
Blood Tests: To help check for signs of kidney damage or infection, such as elevated creatinine levels or blood in the urine.
Urine Tests: Urinalysis helps identify any signs of infection or kidney damage, such as blood in the urine or abnormal urine composition.
The Doctors for hydronephrosis treatment at Apollo Hospitals in Lucknow offer various treatment options including:
Medications: Antibiotics may be prescribed to treat any underlying urinary tract infections contributing to hydronephrosis.
Urinary Catheterisation: Insertion of a urinary catheter, either through the urethra or directly into the bladder through the abdomen to drain the buildup of urine and relieve pressure on the kidneys.
Minimally Invasive Surgery: This could include ureteroscopy or laparoscopy.
Open Surgery: In some cases, open surgical procedures may be required.
