pubmed-article:3297916 | pubmed:abstractText | Ultrasound monitoring of the urinary tract was performed three times in 158 pregnant women (before the 20th week, between the 20th and 30th weeks, and after the 30th week). Dilatation of the kidney was found in 82 women (51.9 percent). All patients with pyelitis gravidarum were found to have dilatation of the kidney. Patients with hydronephrosis are a high-risk group for infection of the urinary tract. Recurrences are common among these women. | lld:pubmed |
