Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My mother has a hydronephrotic kidney with PUJ obstruction. She also has a history of recurrent and severe UTI. I need an expert advice and treatment plan.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

If possible, send all the reports with images. I need to know the severity of hydronephrosis. What is the present creatinine level? What is her age? Only after seeing the above reports, I can suggest a treatment plan. She may require surgery.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I wanted to conduct fresh tests for the severity of the hydronephrosis. And, I want to present all the reports to you at once. Could you please suggest me the exact tests that my mother will need to take. I will try to get all the reports within a week.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Please get the some tests done, CT urography, Serum creatinine, CBC (complete blood count),Serum electrolytes, and urine routine and culture sensitivity. If required, do a DTPA (diethylenetriamine pentaacetate) renal scan but not now. Firstly, get the above tests done. Depending on those reports, we will decide about the DTPA scan.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
