Absence or low individual and public risk
Renal hypoplasia, bilateral - what does this mean
Renal hypoplasia, bilateral is a congenital disorder in which both kidneys are underdeveloped. it is caused by a defect in the development of the kidneys during fetal development, resulting in decreased nephron number and size. it can lead to kidney failure and is associated with an increased risk of high blood pressure, urinary tract infections, and kidney stones.
What happens during the disease - renal hypoplasia, bilateral
Renal hypoplasia, bilateral is a condition in which the kidneys are underdeveloped, resulting in a decrease in the number of nephrons and reduced renal function. this can be caused by genetic mutations, environmental factors, or infections during fetal development, leading to an impaired ability of the kidneys to filter and excrete waste products from the body. it can also be caused by structural abnormalities of the kidneys, which can lead to a decrease in their size and function.
