Causes
Life-threatening Causes
- Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no life-threatening causes of hydronephrosis, however complications resulting from untreated hydronephrosis are common.
Common Causes
The following table summarizes the common causes of hydronephrosis.
| Bladder cancer
Benign prostatic hyperplasia Stones in the bladder Posterior urethral valves Neurogenic bladder |
| Ureteral calculi
Blood clots retention Transitional cell carcinoma of the ureter Sloughed papilla and renal papillary necrosis Ureteral strictures by trauma, iatrogenic injury, radiation Ureteropelvic junction obstruction Extrinsic tumors and masses causing compression and hydronephrosis (eg, inguinal hernia, retroperitoneal lymph nodes, retroperitoneal tumors, prostate cancer, cervical and endometrial tumors and abdominal malignancies) |
| Bladder cancer (eg, transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder)
Bladder calculi Neurogenic bladder Posterior urethral valves Inflammation of the bladder (eg, radiation, endometriosis) |
Less Common Causes
Less common causes of disease name include:
- [Cause1]
- [Cause2]
- [Cause3]
Drug Side Effects
Genetic Causes
- [Disease name] is caused by a mutation in the [gene name] gene.
