Adrenal sonography in renal agenesis and dysplasia.

摘要: Although infants with bilateral renal agenesis commonly have characteristic facial and skeletal morphologic features, some Potter’s syndrome or dysplasia atypical clinical features [1]. These may oligohydnamnios severe respiratory distress secondary to pulmonary hypoplasia, complicated by pneumothonax and/on pneumomediastinum [2]. The rapid recognition that from hypoplasia is agenesis, hypoplasia/dysplasia, obstruction of critical importance in planning appropriate management cases urinary tract obstruction, as well helping decide when aggressive cardiopulmonary supportive measures should be withdrawn on dysplasia. utility sonognaphy a rapid, noninvasive diagnostic method suspected disease has been described [3, 4]. We report an infant oligohydramniosrelated cystic dysplasia, whom bilaterally enlarged adrenal glands simulated the appearance normal kidneys sonognaphically, delaying cessation ventilatory support.
