Have A Stress Fracture Of Sternum, Endented Breast During Surgery. Bulge Seen In Kidney. Thoughts ?

Hi, i have a stress fracture of the sternum. Happened on Dec 26 2012 during a complete revision of mylower toracic spine . Yes there was then no there was no pathologic fracture . During the surgery it also endented my breast across the middle. Also marked hydronephrosis of the left kidney without apparent etiology.no sono yet. Nephlrologist seems to believe that... since they did a anterior fusion first, and i have buldge there my kidney could have moved to outside like my Dr. thinks. Your thoughts on small information.
