Prenatal Diagnosis of Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney and its Histopathological Correlation
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Multi Cystic Dysplastic Kidney (MCDK) develops in utero and the prenatal diagnosis is often made by an ultrasound scan. The vast majority are sporadic and non-familial. Rarely autosomal dominant forms are seen. It is the commonest cause of abnormally enlarged kidney, diagnosed on antenatal ultrasound examination. It is typically a unilateral disorder; bilateral condition is incompatible with extra uterine life. Association of this disease with abnormalities of various organs is common. We report a rare case of unilateral MCDK associated with contralateral atrophic kidney with hydroureter, and hence the pregnancy was terminated.
