Widening of renal pelvis in adults is an abnormal manifestation, which is mainly considered to be related to structural changes such as ureteral stones, ureteral tumor hyperplasia or ureteral stenosis.
1. Ureteral stones: if adults have ureteral stones, it will easily lead to ureteral obstruction, which will easily lead to widening of renal pelvis if accumulated for a long time.
2. Ureteral tumor hyperplasia: if ureteral tumor grows in adults, it usually tends to produce the occupying effect, presses the surrounding tissues, affects the urine discharge, and thus produces the phenomenon of widening of the renal pelvis.
3. Ureteral stenosis: If ureteral stenosis exists in adults, due to the change of local structure, it is easy to cause hydronephrosis, which leads to the symptom of widening of renal pelvis.
If the widening of renal pelvis is more serious in adults, it may affect renal function and needs to be treated according to the cause to avoid delay. Generally, the diagnosis can be clarified through CT, urine routine and abdominal ultrasound.
Once the widening of renal pelvis is found, you should seek medical treatment in time to clarify the cause of the disease and treat the symptoms.
