Hi Dear
Welcome to the HCM,
Hydronephrosis means some obstruction in the passage of urine through the uretor( tube connecting to the kidney to bladder).
And there is some backpressure, which in turn may cause some damage to kidneys.
This obstruction has to be removed by any means to releive the passage of urine freely so that the back pressure is relieved to save kidneys from damage.
Hope the query is answered.
Thanks
