Question

I'm hoping to get some clarity about something that came up in my sister's recent ultrasound. It mentioned a mild prominence of the bilateral pelvicalyceal system. I'm a bit concerned about what this actually means for the baby and how serious it could be. She's currently 6.5 months pregnant, and I'm wondering if there are any steps we should be taking at this point. Any advice would be appreciated!

mild prominence of bilateral pelvicalyceal system is typically not serious and often resolves naturally. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor for ongoing monitoring to ensure the babys kidneys are developing properly. After birth, if necessary, the baby may undergo further tests to assess kidney function.
