Use of prenatal ultrasound findings to predict postnatal outcome in fetuses with lower urinary tract obstruction
Our data suggest that it is possible to predict death and postnatal transplantation and/or dialysis from USFs in fetuses with suspected LUTO with acceptable accuracy. Predictive accuracy will improve with continued follow-up of more patients, enabling more personalized prenatal counseling and more informed decision-making for families. © 2024 The Author(s).
