Resumo(s)
As anomalias congénitas renais e do tracto urinário (CAKUT - Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract) são achados frequentes na ecografia pré-natal e apresentam grande morbilidade nas crianças quando associadas a doença renal crónica. Estas representam uma causa significativa de doença renal crónica em crianças e jovens adultos. A detecção pré-natal e o tratamento precoce destas anomalias proporcionam uma oportunidade de minimizar ou prevenir uma deterioração renal progressiva. A hidronefrose fetal é a anomalia mais frequentemente observada na ecografia. Neste trabalho, é apresentado um caso de hidronefrose congénita bilateral associada a displasia renal bilateral, detectada às 30 semanas de gestação, e o seu seguimento após o nascimento, destacando-se a importância de um rastreio ecográfico pré-natal na preservação da função renal.
Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT) are common findings on fetal ultrasound and are related to a large morbidity in children when associated with chronic kidney disease. They account for a significant cause of chronic kidney disease in children and young adults. The prenatal detection and early treatment of these urinary tract abnormalities provide an opportunity to minimize or prevent progressive renal damage. Fetal hydronephrosis is the most frequently observed abnormality in the ultrasound. Here it is presented a case of bilateral congenital hydronephrosis associated with bilateral renal dysplasia, detected at 30 weeks of gestation, and its follow-up after birth, highlighting the importance of prenatal ultrasound in the preservation of renal function.
