  • Normally, when a fetus is developing, ureters grow into kidneys and branch out to form the network that collects urine. (akronchildrens.org)
  • With renal dysplasia, this process is disrupted, and urine can't flow out of the affected kidney as it's supposed to. (akronchildrens.org)
  • The additional parts of the urinary tract that may be affected include the bladder, the tubes that carry urine from each kidney to the bladder (the ureters), and the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body (the urethra). (medlineplus.gov)
  • The abnormalities can result in recurrent urinary tract infections or a buildup of urine in the urinary tract, which may damage the kidneys or other structures. (medlineplus.gov)
  • Obstruction occurring in the lower urinary tract can also cause this increased pressure through efflux of urine into the kidney. (abdominalkey.com)
  • CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that for the evaluation of mild tubular damage, low-molecular-weight marker proteins should be included in the urine diagnostic of a personalized living kidney donor follow-up. (bvsalud.org)
  • Kidney stones are small, hard mineral deposits that form in the kidneys or they may form when urine becomes concentrated, which allows minerals to crystallize and stick together. (newhealthadvisor.org)
