Fetal dilated kidney, also known as fetal hydronephrosis, refers to the swelling of a kidney in a developing fetus due to the accumulation of urine when there is an obstruction in the urinary tract. This condition can be detected through prenatal ultrasounds and may indicate potential issues such as ureteral obstructions or kidney abnormalities. While mild cases may resolve on their own, more severe cases may require further monitoring or intervention after birth to prevent complications. Early diagnosis and management are crucial for the health of the fetus and the newborn.
