Atretic left kidney refers to a condition where the left kidney is either underdeveloped or completely absent due to a developmental anomaly during fetal growth. This condition can result in various complications, including hypertension and renal function impairment, depending on the presence and functionality of the right kidney. In some cases, individuals may remain asymptomatic and not require treatment, while others may need medical management or surgical intervention. Diagnosis is typically made through imaging studies such as ultrasound.
