Is There Any Chance Of Renal Failure In Baby During Second Pregnancy?
last year we aborted the pregency at the 20th week due to renal failure of the kid, one kidney was missing and in the other one there was blockage in the urinary track. in the anomoly scan it got detected. my question is does this kind of case gets repeated in the second time prgency
Most of the time such anomalies in foetus are found due to chromosomal abnormalities. The chances of repetition of such chromosomal abnormalities cannot be excluded.
I would advise you first to submit both of you for your chromosomal studies to find whether the fault is in either of you which has resulted in the chromosomal abnormalities in the baby.
If no fault is found in either of you, you may go for pregnancy. During pregnancy please monitor the baby by ultrasonography and chromosomal study if needed.
I would advise you to consult foetal medicine consultant before you take any step for next pregnancy; and even during the pregnancy.
I hope this helps you.
