  • Title: Antenatal hydronephrosis with postnatal resolution: how long are postnatal studies warranted?
    Author: Gatti JM, Broecker BH, Scherz HC, Perez-Brayfield MR, Kirsch AJ.
    Journal: Urology; 2001 Jun; 57(6):1178. PubMed ID: 11377338.
    Abstract:
    We present 2 cases of antenatal hydronephrosis with initial normalization of postnatal studies. Both patients experienced late-onset (6 and 22 months) hydronephrosis secondary to ureteropelvic junction obstruction, necessitating surgical intervention. These cases raise questions about the need for late follow-up imaging in patients with apparent resolution of hydronephrosis diagnosed antenatally.
