This study states that It is basic to separate between a multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) and a kidney with extreme hydronephrosis as the treatment changes essentially. We planned an investigation to think about renal ultrasound (RUS) to atomic medication (NM) filter in the conclusion of MCDK, to decide whether RUS can be utilized for the authoritative finding of MCKD without utilization of NM examine.

We played out a review survey of kids with MCDK, who went through both a RUS and Tc-99m MAG3 or DMSA filter. We wanted to compute the positive prescient worth of a RUS determination of MCDK, utilizing NM filter analysis of a nonfunctioning kidney as the best quality level.

The conclusion of MCDK was made by RUS in 91 patients, 84 of whom had an ordinary bladder US. NM affirmed the conclusion of MCDK in each of the 84 of these patients (100%).

We have exhibited a high prescient incentive for RUS in the finding of MCDK. Our information support that in solid newborn children with RUS determination of one-sided MCDK and typical bladder US, NM output might be superfluous to affirm the conclusion.
