CLINICAL-IMAGING STUDY OF CONGENITAL HYDRONEPHROSIS IN THE EARLY POSTNATAL PERIOD.

Early diagnosis of congenital hydronephrosis, sometimes even from intrauterine life, may lead to the establishment of a suitable therapeutic course to avoid the occurrence of complications. Congenital hydroronephrosis, especially bilateral, and it is possible complications, such as recurrent urinary infections, which, in the absence of treatment, may impair renal function such as acute renal failure. Good ultrasound monitoring of newborns at 24-48 and post-natal and at 3 months allows to improve the quality of life of these children before any possible complication. In the present paper the authors propose to establish the presence of possible congenital hydronephrosis in a group of newborns admitted to the Neonatology Clinic of Louis Turcanu Hospital during the period 01.01.2016-31.12.2017 and the therapeutic conduct of choice that will lead to the avoidance of possible complications.
