Antenatal Diagnostic Aspects of Unilateral Multicystic Kidney Dysplasia – Sensitivity, Specificity, Predictive Values, Differential Diagnoses, Associated Malformations and Consequences

Abstract

Unilateral MCKD is a malformation with an excellent prognosis for child survival and global renal function if encountered in isolation. However, our analysis of live infants and autopsy cases demonstrates a high proportion of severe associated malformations of the urinary tract and other organ systems.
