Dropping of the kidney, also known as nephroptosis or renal ptosis, occurs when a kidney descends from its normal position in the abdominal cavity, often due to a lack of supporting tissue. This condition can lead to complications such as kidney obstruction, pain, or urinary issues. Nephroptosis is usually more common in slender individuals and may not always require treatment unless symptoms develop. Treatment options include lifestyle changes, pain management, or, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
