Question

The patient was found to have hydronephrosis in the left kidney and the entire left ureter was dilated after delivery. At six months, there was cloudy urine, and routine urine tests revealed the presence of white blood cells. The doctor recommended surgical treatment.

Answer

After a color Doppler ultrasound examination, it was found that there was hydronephrosis in the left kidney, with the entire left ureter dilated. The ureter was dilated to 9 millimeters, the pelvis of the kidney had 15 millimeters of hydronephrosis, and the size of the left kidney was 93*38 millimeters. The possibility of a cyst at the end of the left ureter cannot be ruled out. Surgical treatment is recommended.
