    Hydronephrosis is a physical manifestation of a disease process that prevents urine from draining properly from the kidneys, ureters, and bladder. It can be caused by sudden or prolonged blockages that obstruct the flow of urine from one or both kidneys, retrograde urine flow damaging the kidneys, issues with bladder emptying, or narrowing of the ureters. Common associated diseases include acute or chronic bilateral obstructive uropathy, reflux nephropathy, neurogenic bladder, bladder outlet obstruction, and uteropevic junction obstruction.

    HYDRONEPHROSIS is therefore not itself a separate disease, but rather a physical

    manifestation of the disease process that keeps urine from draining out of the kidneys,
    ureters and bladders.

    Disease associated with hydronephrisis include:

    • ACUTE BILATERAL OBSTRUCTIVE UROPATHY


    - sudden blockage of the flow of urine from both kidneys, which can cause the
    back- up of urine and kidney injury

    • CHRONIC BILATERAL OBSTRUCTIVE UROPATHY


    - involves prolonged or progressive blockage of flow of urine from both
    kidneys, causing kidney (renal) damage

    • REFLUX NEPHROPATHY
    - condition in which damage to internal kidney structures occurs from the
    retrograde (backward) flow of urine into the kidney

    • NEUROGENIC BLADDER
    - urinary problem in which there is abdominal emptying of the bladder with
    subsequent retention of incontinence of urine

    • BLADDER OUTLET OBSTRUCTION


    - is at the base of the bladder and it reduces or prevents the flow of urine into
    the urethra

    • UTEROPELVIC JUNCTION (UPJ) OBSTRUCTION


    - abnormal narrowing of the ureter at the level where the kidney pelvis and
    ureter meet
