    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 2012 Nov; 199(5):W545-53. PubMed ID: 23096198.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: Congenital urinary anomalies may be symptomatic or encountered during imaging for other clinical indications. The array of abnormalities is related to the embryologic stage at the time of the developmental insult, and these abnormalities result in a spectrum of conditions ranging from insignificant to incompatible with life. CONCLUSION: Understanding the implications of common congenital urinary anomalies is the key to detecting associated anomalies, initiating therapy, and avoiding both complications and unnecessary intervention.
