OBJECTIVE: In our study, the functional prognosis of kidneys with prenatal @entity6986 were investigated. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Between 2006 and 2010, fetal @entity6986 were detected in 19 fetuses using prenatal ultrasonography (US), and the medical records were reviewed retrospectively. Of the 19 cases, the follow-up data were available for 10 fetuses. The gestational age at diagnosis, prognosis of @entity6986 , clinical course and renal functions were recorded. Postnatal renal functions were assessed with renal scintigraphy. RESULTS: Unilateral @entity6986 and increased parenchyma echogenicity in the ipsilateral kidney were detected in all of the fetuses. Of the 10 fetuses with follow-up data, the option of termination was offered in 6 cases of anhydramnios, including 3 cases with signs of @entity3885 (a possible @entity340 ( @entity340 ) and poor prognostic factors and 3 cases with unilateral @entity3041 and increased echogenicity in the contralateral kidney. Only one family agreed the termination. The other 5 fetuses died during the early postnatal period. The average postnatal follow-up period in the 4 surviving fetuses was 22.5 months (8-38 months). One @entity1 with a @entity340 underwent ablation surgery during the early postnatal period. In the postnatal period, none of the 4 kidneys that were @entity6986 were functional on scintigraphic evaluation. The @entity6986 disappeared in 3 cases. Nephrectomy was performed in one case due to recurrent @entity293 . CONCLUSION: In our study, no function was detected in the ipsilateral kidney of surviving @entity1 with @entity6986 . Upper urinary tract dilatation accompanied by a urinoma is a poor prognostic factor for renal function.
