Overview
The majority of patients with hydronephrosis are asymptomatic.The most common symptoms of hydronephrosis include alteration in urine output, pain, hematuria and hypertension.
History and Symptoms
- The signs and symptoms of hydronephrosis depends upon whether the obstruction is acute or chronic.
- Unilateral hydronephrosis may even occur without symptoms.[1][2]
- Symptoms that occur regardless of where the obstruction lies include loin or flank pain.
- An enlarged kidney may be palpable on examination.
- The majority of patients with hydronephrosis are asymptomatic.
History
Patients with hydronephrosis may have a positive history of:[3][4][5][6][7][8]
- Kidney stone
- Congenital malformation
- Tumor or cancer
