Early detection of ureteropelvic junction obstruction in neonates with prenatal diagnosis of renal pelvis dilatation using 1H NMR urinary metabolomics
Abstract Renal pelvis dilatation (RPD) is diagnosed in utero on prenatal ultrasonography (US) and can resolve spontaneously. However, isolated RPD can also reflect ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO), which requires surgical treatment to prevent progressive renal deterioration. The diagnosis o...
