Also scan report says 2 loops of cord around the neck today.Please advise.Hoe can this mild dilation and extra renal pelvis be cured.
HalloThanks for your query. Ultrasound scan of your wife who is in 35 weeks pregnancy suggest external pelvis and dilatation of Renal pelvis. This indicates Pelvic Ureteric Junction Obstruction. Whereby there is narrowing of the junction of Renal Pelvis and Ureter, If this is complete it may obstruct the Chat Doctor.  Once the baby is born you have to do few investigations like Intravenous Paleography, DTPA Renal scan and ultrasound scan to ascertain the degree of obstruction. Further treatment will be decided on findings of above tests. So consult some Urologist after the birth of a baby. Thanks.
