Congenital renal failure - what does this mean

Congenital renal failure is caused by an abnormality in the development of the kidneys before birth, resulting in inadequate functioning of the kidneys. this can lead to a buildup of waste products in the blood, resulting in a range of symptoms such as poor growth, high blood pressure, and fluid retention.

What happens during the disease - congenital renal failure

Congenital renal failure is caused by a variety of genetic and environmental factors. in some cases, the cause is unknown, but it is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic mutations, environmental toxins, and other factors that affect the development of the kidneys. these factors can cause the kidneys to develop abnormally, leading to a decrease in the functioning of the kidneys and eventually to renal failure.
