Ch. 63 EX 1 & 2 Flashcards
Characterized by a group of findings associated with oligohydraminos and renal failure or bilateral renal agenesis.
Potter’s syndrome
Occurs when the kidney does not migrate upward into the retroperitoneal space.
Pelvic kidney
Small part of the lumen of the allantois that persists while the urachus forms.
Urachal cyst
Anatomic structure that occurs only in male fetuses.
Posterior urethral valve
Renal system fails to develop
Renal agenesis
Forms when the inferior poles of the kidney fuse while they are in the pelvis.
Horseshoe kidney
Complex malformation involving lower limb anomalies, spinal defect, anal atresia, and lower abdominal wall defect (exstrophy of the bladder and protrusion of the intestines)
Cloacal exstrophy
Dilated ureters
Hydroureters
Congenital out pouching of the distal ureter into the bladder.
Ureterocele
Abnormal congenital opening of the male urethra on the underneath side of the penis.
Hypospadias
Abnormal congenital opening of the male urethra on the top side of the penis.
Epispadias
Dilated renal pelvis without involvement of the calyces.
Pyelectasis
Autosomal recessive disease that affects the fetal kidneys and liver
Infantile Polycystic kidney disease
Collection of fluid in the vagina and uterus.
Hydrometrocolpos
Junction where the ureter enters the bladder.
Ureterovesical junction
Failure of the testes to descend into the scrotum.
Cryptorchidism
Dilatation of the fetal abdomen secondary to severe hydronephrosis and fetal ascites.
Prune belly syndrome
Level of the urethra where the urinary tract may become obstructed.
Megacystis
Junction of the ureter entering the renal pelvis; most common site of obstruction.
Ureteropelvic junction
Condition in which both ovarian and testicular tissues are present.
Hermaphroditism
Condition that causes a massively distended bladder.
Urethral atresia
Multiple cysts replace normal renal tissue throughout the kidney.
Multicystic dysplastic kidney disease
Dilated renal pelvis in the fetus
Fetal hydronephrosis
Term used to describe renal diseases other than renal a genesis that result in renal failure and facial or structure abnormalities caused by oligohydraminos.
