Dear Sir, This is with respect to one discussion i saw on your board (obgyn.net) regarding renal pelvis dilation. Our baby had a normal second level sonography. At 26 weeks we had another sonography for fetal echo. There the Sonographer said that there is a mild Renal Pelvis Dilation of 8 mm and a follow-up sonography will be required. At 32 weeks we went for Level-III sonography, which concluded that the RPD has increased to 12 mm. Our doctor said that its unilateral and not much to worry about she suggested one more sonography at week 34. And the baby may have to go through a sonography two weeks after birth. Kindly tell us if its a cause of real concern. And whether something can be done so that we can have a healthy baby.

Thanking you in anticipation.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
