What Does Minimal Right Renal Pelvicalyceal Fullness Mean On An Echocardiogram Report?

Good evening, I went to the doctor about 6 weeks ago and got a echo of my tummy. The doctor wrote minimal right renal pelvicalyceal fullness system and my leukocytes were too high. They gave me antibiotics for 5 days and everything was fine. Now 6 weeks later they pain in my right below my ribs is back again. Could you explain to me what minimal right renal pelvicalyceal fullness system means? Thanks in advance, L

Hello,

Usually, kidneys contain nephrons which may drain the urine into one kidney part is called calyx from there it may reach the ureter the bladder then excretion.

It is a normal process. But in your calyx part having filling defect means it may be a stone or polyp or a tumour etc. Until examination is done by CT abdomen or urethroscopy.

Please consult your urologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
