HI
Well come to HCM
The from the imaging report it could be said that the lesion have some nodes may be sign of progression of disease once the lesions spreads up in the renal area then this could cause obstruction and most likely out come of this obstruction would be backflow of urine and this is called hydronephrosis, hope this helps.
