Why does renal agenesis happen? |
ureteric bud fails to develop, eliminating induction of the metanephric vesicles and nephron formation |
|
what are the two type of renal agenesis? |
unilateral, bilateral |
|
Which type of agenesis is more common in males? |
unilateral |
|
in unilateral renal agenesis, which kidney is usually absent? |
L |
|
what happens to the other kidney that is present in unilateral renal agenesis? |
it becomes hypertrophic over making it compatible with life |
|
overall, bilateral renal agenesis causes what? |
oligohydraminos |
|
with bilateral renal agenesis, what does that cause and result with? |
potter sequence deformed limbs, wrinkly skin, annl facial appearance |
|
what is the congenital small kidney with no evidence of dyplasia |
renal hypoplasia |
|
what is the disorganization of renal parenchyma with abnormal developed immature nephrons |
renal dysplasia |
|
this is when one or both of the kidney fail to ascend and remain in the pelvis or lower lumbar area |
ectopic kidney |
|
what is the most common renal fusion? |
horseshoe kidney |
|
what causes a horseshoe kidney? |
inferior poles of the kidney fused across the midline b/c they got caught behind the root of the IMA |
|
are horseshoe kidneys symptomatic? |
no |
|
Which way do the hilum face in a horseshoe kidney? |
ventrally |
|
This anomaly is caused by the obstruction to urine flow from the renal pelvis to proximal ureter |
ureteropelvic junction obstruction |
|
What is the most common congenital obstruction of urinary tract? |
ureteropelvic junction obstruction |
|
what happens with UPJ and severe ureteropelvic atresia? and where is it found? |
multicystic dysplastic kidney dilated calyces |
|
What does the multi cystic dysplastic kidney show as? |
grapelike smooth walled cysts, dysplastic glomeruli and atrophic tubules found between cysts |
|
Which urinary anomaly is autosomal recessive? |
childhood polycystic kidney disease |
|
what are the characteristics of the childhood polycystic kidney disease? |
huge, spongy, dilation of the collecting ducts, with multiple cysts |
|
child polycystic kidney disease is clinically associated with? |
cysts of liver, pancreas and lungs |
|
What is the tx for PCKD? |
dialysis and kidney transplant |
|
what is the most common renal malignancy of childhood |
wilms tumor |
|
This is the large, solitary, well-circumsicirbed mass on the cut sections is soft, homogenous, and tan-grey in color |
wilms tumor |
|
What are the 3 different histological areas of wilms tumor |
stromal area, blastemal area or tightly packed embryonic cells, and tubular area |
|
why does a ureteropelvic duplications happen? |
ureteric bud prematurely divides before penetrating with the metanephric blastema |
|
what does ureteropelvic duplications result in?? |
double kidney, duplicated ureter, renal pelvis |
|
how can you Dx ureteropelvic duplication? |
IVP, US, CT, MRI, excretory urogram |
|
With an ectopic ureter in males, where does the ureter enter? |
into neck of bladder or into the prostatic part of urethra |
|
With an ectopic ureter in females, where does the ureter enter? |
into the neck of bladder, urethra, vagina, or vestibule--> causes incontinence |
|
This is where the posterior part of the bladder is exposed to there exterior? |
exstrophy of bladder |
|
Why does the exstrophy of the bladder happen? |
failure of the anterior and wall and the anterior wall of the bladder to develop properly |
|
Exstrophy of the bladder is clinically associated with? |
urine drainage |
|
this is where the cysts originate from the remnants of epithelial of the urachus? |
urachal cysts |
|
This is due to persistent inferior end of arches that dilates and opens into bladder? |
urachal sinus |
|
This is where the entire arches remains patent, allowing urine to escape from the umbilical orifice? |
urachal fistula |
|
this is where the distal end of the ureter has cyst like protrusion into submucosal layer of the urinary bladder |
simple ureterocele |
|
this is the distal end of the ureter has a cyst like protrusion into submucosal layer of the urinary bladder that is associated with an ectopic ureter and duplication |
ectopic ureterocele |
|
This is the most common extracranial neoplasm containing primitive neuroblasts or neurocrest origin? |

congenital megacystis |
|
what does congenital megacystis result in? |
renal failure and pulmonary hypoplasia |
