Key result
Postnatal ultrasound guides risk-tailored follow-up for antenatal hydronephrosis using pelvic diameter and SFU grading.
Why the study?
Increased detection of antenatal hydronephrosis due to screening necessitates clear guidance on postnatal evaluation and management based on renal pelvis measurements and grading.
This article provides a consensus on the postnatal evaluation and management of antenatally detected hydronephrosis.
Supports ultrasonography-based postnatal monitoring stratified by pelvic diameter and SFU grade; leaves open prospective validation of optimal intervals.
The antenatal screening has brought about an increased detection of anomalies of the kidneys and urinary tract.All patients with antenatal hydronephrosis should undergo postnatal ultrasonography; the intensity of subsequent evaluation depends on the anterior pelvic diameter of the renal pelvis and Society for Fetal Urology grading.This article is composed of a plan to give thorough data concerning the postnatal management of antenatally detected hydronephrosis. Defining and grading ANHThe detection of renal abnormalities during antenatal ultrasonography was first reported by Garrett et al, in 1970 [1].With the

Pradyumna Pan (2019) conducted a review in Antenatal Hydronephrosis. Postnatal evaluation and management was evaluated. Antenatal hydronephrosis requires careful postnatal evaluation using ultrasonography, with the intensity of follow-up and management dictated by the anterior pelvic diameter and Society for Fetal Urology grading.
