Hydronephrosis with renal and ureteral calculous obstruction - what does this mean
Hydronephrosis with renal and ureteral calculous obstruction is caused by the presence of stones in the renal pelvis and ureter, blocking the normal flow of urine from the kidney to the bladder. this obstruction causes the kidney to swell due to the accumulation of urine, leading to a condition called hydronephrosis.
What happens during the disease - hydronephrosis with renal and ureteral calculous obstruction
Hydronephrosis is a condition where the kidneys become swollen due to an obstruction of the urinary tract. this obstruction is usually caused by a buildup of calcium or other minerals in the ureter or renal pelvis, which blocks the flow of urine from the kidney to the bladder. this blockage causes increased pressure in the kidney, leading to dilation of the renal calyces and collecting system. this dilation can cause damage to the kidney tissue and can lead to further complications such as infection and kidney failure.
