At Genesiss Multi-Speciality Hospital, our Urology Department provides expert diagnosis and treatment for Hydronephrosis, a condition where urine buildup causes swelling in one or both kidneys. This occurs when there is an obstruction or blockage preventing urine from draining properly from the kidney to the bladder. Our experienced urologists use advanced diagnostic imaging and minimally invasive procedures to relieve obstruction, preserve kidney function, and prevent long-term damage.
Hydronephrosis is the swelling of one or both kidneys due to urine buildup caused by an obstruction or blockage in the urinary tract.
It can result from kidney stones, urinary tract obstructions, tumors, enlarged prostate, or congenital defects.
If untreated, hydronephrosis can lead to kidney damage or infection. Early diagnosis and treatment help prevent complications.
It is usually detected through ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI to identify the blockage and evaluate kidney function.
