Introduction: The American Consensus established risk groups for urinary tract dilation (UTD), however it has not been validated. Purpose: To validate the usefulness of the upper UTD risk groups according to a long-term outcome of patients stratified with a homologous classification. Read More

Pediatric kidney abnormalities, such as urinary tract dilation (UTD), are common, and current reporting methods vary significantly. There's a need for more precise evaluation methods. Using automated 3D kidney volume measurements from ultrasound (US) offers an alterantive objective approach. Our aim is to evaluate the diagnostic potential of automated 3D kidney volume measurements for detecting and categorizing UTD, comparing their accuracy with clinical assessment. Read More

Congenital urethral polyps are a rare benign fibroepithelial lesion, typically arising from the verumontanum. We present a case of a 2 day old neonate undergoing renal ultrasound for follow up of prenatally diagnosed urinary tract dilation. Ultrasound demonstrated severe bilateral central and peripheral caliyectasis with parenchymal thinning, bilateral distal ureterectasis and marked bladder wall thickening. An echogenic soft tissue nodule was visualized at the bladder outlet. Subsequent VCUG showed a rounded filling defect intermittently located in the posterior urethra and bladder neck, suspicious for a diving mobile polyp. Transurethral resection of the polyp was performed. This case highlights an unusual cause of bladder outlet obstruction in neonates which can mimic the presentation and imaging appearance of posterior urethral valves. Read More

Duplicated collecting systems can be associated with vesicoureteral reflux, urinary obstruction, ureteroceles, incontinence, and renal parenchymal scarring which can result in decreased renal function, therefore, early identification by radiologists and clinicians is crucial. The purpose of this educational exhibit is to review the embryology, highlight the imaging manifestations, and discuss the clinical ramifications of duplicated renal collecting systems in the pediatric population.

In 2014, a new classification system for prenatal and postnatal urinary tract dilatation (UTD) was introduced via a multidisciplinary consensus statement. We have created an easy to use web-based calculator for the prenatal and postnatal UTD classification system which can be used to generate the risk category and the current recommendations for each group. We aim to simplify the overall process for physicians who are either unfamiliar with details of the classification system or apply the classification system infrequently, making it difficult to remember the criteria each time. Moreover, the final risk stratification group and the corresponding current recommendations are automatically copied to the clipboard and can be pasted directly into the imaging report, facilitating the reporting process.
