Birth defects ....  Obstruction of Urinary tract 1
Posted in 2013
Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is caused by a constriction at the top of the ureter,
where it intersects with the renal pelvis, which is the part of the kidney that collects the urine
before it starts down the ureter.  This can occur because of a constricting band of fibrous
(scar-like) tissue or from a crossing blood vessel.  Though it is generally present at birth,
sometimes it is so mild as to not cause a problem, but the obstruction may worsen with
time later in infancy or in childhood as a result of changing relationships of the structures of
the urinary tract and of surrounding tissues as growth occurs.   A band of tissue or blood
vessel near the ureter may impinge on the ureter with time and growth.    This is usually a
unilateral finding, but it can be bilateral, and it also is associated with problems with the
other kidney.  Multicystic dysplastic kidneys are associated with a UPJ obstruction of the
other kidney.  Twenty percent of babies with a multicystic dysplastic kidney have a UPJ
obstruction of the other kidney.
UPJ obstruction usually must be fixed surgically.  The surgery is safe and successful,
requiring only 2-3 days in the hospital.  Generally if it is discovered in the newborn period
and is unilateral, the surgery is postponed a month or two until the baby is stable and
growing and doing well.
Ureterovesical (UVJ) obstruction is much less frequent than is UPJ obstruction, and like UPJ
obstruction, can be unilateral or bilateral.    It is an abnormality in the insertion of the ureter
into the bladder, blocking the flow of the urine into the bladder, and is fixed by surgically
reinserting the ureter into the bladder, the same as is done for vesicoureteral reflux (see
hydronephrosis without obstruction).


My advise
1..  Follow healthy habits and give birth to Healthy child

Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info My memories Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Posted in 2014 Pregnancy can pose serious challenges to sleeping well. Poor quality and too little sleep are common during pregnancy, when many women experience fragmented sleep and symptoms of insomnia. Even women who don’t generally experience sleep problems find that during pregnancy they have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep, as well as trouble getting enough sleep. We talk a lot about sleep issues for new mothers. But new research   suggests we should be paying more attention to the sleep health of expectant mothers as well. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center found   links between both the quality and quantity of pregnant women’s sleep and complications at birth, including low birth weight and pre-term births. The link betw
