Adults with unilateral renal agenesis have considerably higher chances of hypertension (high blood pressure).

This phenomenon is also called unilateral renal agenesis.

Renal agenesis is a medical condition in which one (unilateral) or both (bilateral) fetal kidneys fail to develop.

Systemic conditions linked to blepharochalasis are renal agenesis, vertebral abnormalities, and congenital heart disease.

Renal agenesis.

However, as the risk of either cystic fibrosis or renal agenesis is likely to be higher in the children, genetic counseling is generally recommended.

A specific association of uterus didelphys, unilateral hematocolpos and ipsilateral renal agenesis has been described.

Patients with uterine abnormalities may have associated renal abnormalities including unilateral renal agenesis.

This disorder is more common in infants born of a parent who has a kidney malformation, particularly the absence of one kidney (unilateral renal agenesis).

Bilateral renal agenesis (BRA) was first recognized as a defect of human fetal development in 1671 by Wolfstrigel.

Classic Potter sequence occurs when the developing fetus has bilateral renal agenesis, which also presents with agenesis of the ureters.

Studies have proven that unilateral renal agenesis and bilateral renal agenesis are genetically related.

Bilateral renal agenesis is the uncommon and serious failure of both a fetus' kidneys to develop during gestation, and is one causative agent of Potter sequence.

It is typically caused by fetal urinary tract abnormalities such as bilateral renal agenesis (Potter's syndrome), fetal polycystic kidneys, or genitourinary obstruction.

Minor criteria were congenital malformation of the nose, ears, or larynx, cleft lip and/or palate, skeletal defects, umbilical hernia, renal agenesis, and mental retardation.

Aniridia ataxia renal agenesis psychomotor retardation is a rare genetic disorder characterized by missing irises of the eye, ataxia, psychomotor retardation and abnormal kidneys.

Kidney Agenesis Renal Agenesis None Bilateral Renal Agenesis is the absence of both kidneys at birth.

Bacanli A, Ciftcioglu MA, Savas B, et al.: Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome associated with unilateral renal agenesis: acceleration of basal cell carcinomas following radiotherapy.

The failure of the metanephros to develop in cases of BRA and some cases involving unilateral renal agenesis (URA) is due primarily to the failure of the mesonephric duct to produce a ureteric bud capable of inducing the metanephric mesenchyme.

It can be caused by renal diseases such as bilateral renal agenesis (BRA), atresia of the ureter or urethra causing obstruction of the urinary tract, polycystic or multicystic kidney diseases, renal hypoplasia, amniotic rupture, uteroplacental insufficiency from maternal hypertension or toxemia.

In a female fetus with a normal karyotype and cryptophthalmos, ambiguous external genitalia, syndactyly, bilobed lungs, bilateral renal agenesis, hypoplastic bladder, and agenesis of internal genitalia with streak ovaries, Shafeghati et al. (2008) identified homozygosity for a splice site mutation in the FREM2 gene (608945.0002).
