Congenital Urological Abnormalities

Congenital urological abnormalities are defects in the urinary tract that occur during fetal development. These conditions affect how the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra form and function. Examples include structural issues like kidneys that are too small or improperly shaped, or problems with the urethra that can cause blockage or reflux. Often detected at birth or through prenatal imaging, these abnormalities can lead to urinary problems, infections, and other health issues. Treatment may involve medication or surgery, depending on the severity and type of the condition, with the goal of restoring normal urinary function and preventing complications.
