To evaluate the impact of congenital solitary functioning kidney (CSFK) length, measured early in life, on the eGFR levels during the follow-up.
Study design
We retrospectively selected 162 CSFK patients undergoing, within 60 days of life, renal length (RL) measurement by ultrasound.
We divided the population in:
Group 1 = RL ≥ 2 standard deviation score (SDS).
Group 2 = RL |
