  • Title: Current diagnosis and management of fetal genitourinary abnormalities.
    Author: Hubert KC, Palmer JS.
    Journal: Urol Clin North Am; 2007 Feb; 34(1):89-101. PubMed ID: 17145364.
    Abstract:
    Prenatal assessment with ultrasonography provides excellent imaging of fluid-filled structures (eg, hydronephrosis, renal cysts, and dilated bladder) and renal parenchyma. This information allows for the generation of a differential diagnosis, identification of associated anomalies, and assessment of the prenatal and postnatal risks of a given anomaly. This enhances parental education and prenatal and postnatal planning. This article discusses the current methods of diagnosis and management of fetal genitourinary anomalies, and also the postnatal evaluation and treatment of these conditions.
