Question

My child has been diagnosed with a kidney effusion of 0.52. Will this affect the child’s development? What factors or causes lead to this condition? What are the solutions?

Answer

Hello, I’m not sure if you’re referring to a pregnant woman with kidney effusion or a fetus with kidney effusion. If it’s the pregnant woman, the child can still be carried to term; it might be due to pregnancy-related compression causing obstruction in the kidney’s excretion pathway. If it’s the fetus, it is recommended to further observe and regularly check to see if the effusion increases. Best wishes.
