About Hydronephrosis Treatment
Hydronephrosis refers to the swelling of one or both kidneys due to a build-up of urine, typically caused by a blockage or obstruction in the urinary tract. At Paras Hospital, Udaipur, we specialize in the medical and surgical management of hydronephrosis — including mild, severe, unilateral, and bilateral cases — using the latest diagnostic tools and minimally invasive techniques for optimal outcomes.
Whether it's caused by kidney stones, congenital issues, or ureteric obstruction, our team of urologists and nephrologists ensure timely intervention and long-term kidney health.

What is Hydronephrosis?
Hydronephrosis occurs when urine cannot drain from the kidney to the bladder, leading to kidney swelling. Left untreated, it may cause pain, urinary infections, and long-term kidney damage. Treatment depends on the severity, cause, and whether one or both kidneys are affected.
Common Causes of Hydronephrosis:
-
Kidney stones or ureteral blockage
-
Enlarged prostate (in men)
-
Congenital abnormalities in children
-
Pregnancy-related pressure on the urinary tract
-
Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction
-
Scar tissue or post-surgical complications
