[|AI|]  HelloGenerally mild fullness of pelvi-calyceal system in kidneys in antenatal period has good prognosis. In the majority of the cases with mild fullness in second trimester, it gets resolve either during pregnancy or in the early postpartum period. It may be due to fetal PUB obstruction, VUJ obstruction, posterior urethral valve etc. It is expected to improve with advancement of pregnancy. You may only need follow-up ultrasound. If findings persists then it can be managed after birth also. Wish you a happy and safe pregnancy. Take Care Chat Doctor.
