Zusammenfassung:Objective To create nomograms of fetal renal compensatory growth in cases of unilateral renal agenesis (URA). Methods A retrospective study of fetuses with isolated URA diagnosed prenatally, and confirmed postnatal was performed. Results Seventy‐four fetuses with isolated solitary kidney were included in the study. A total of 134 measurements of the kidney's length were performed. Ninety five of them were studied longitudinally (2–6 measurements each). The raw values of the compensatory kidney demonstrated a significant correlation with gestational age (Pearson correlation coefficient 0.901, p
