Coelocentesis: a study of short-term safety.

abstract：:The aim of this study was to determine the prenatal fetal pyelectasis which requires postnatal evaluation. This was a retrospective analysis involving 65 infants with complete urological follow-up; 59 had shown prenatal evidence of pyelectasis using previously published standards. Males were more common in both the no...
