Hydronephrosis in left kidney
Hi My husband had hydronephrosis in left kidney for which a ureteral stent was placed. IVP after that still shows there is no obvious excretion of contrast in left kidney. Is it because the contrast inside stent is not visible in IVP or there is really no excretion from left kidney. Kindly help to understand. Thanks

Get a DTPA Renogram done. That's the surest test to determine whether the kidney is functional or not?
