Congenital Urinary Tract Abnormalities

Congenital urinary tract abnormalities are conditions present at birth that affect the structure and function of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. These abnormalities can lead to issues such as blockages, improper connections, or misplacement of urinary organs. They can result in symptoms like infections, difficulties in urination, or organ damage over time. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to manage these conditions effectively, often involving medication, monitoring, or surgery, depending on the severity and type of abnormality.
