Neonatal ascites and oligohydramnios: the role of kidney

Posterior urethral valve pathologies are the most frequent childhood obstructive uropathy reported, and we infer their presence on diagnosing foetal ascites and oligohydramnios. Early action is vital to determine the long-term development and the degree of impairment of renal function. We report a n...
