hello Doctror.My name is Ula, I have malrotated right kidney with squeezed ureters.  Unfortunately every week i get an UTI which causes massive pain and swelling on my right side, besides a blood goes with my urine. I got from the doctor medication which suppose stop the pain. However those stop work. Could you just tell me if there would be a chance of having a surgery and if so, could you tell me how this treatment would look like. Is there any types of different treatments for this disease ?
Hi and thanks for the query, I must say that this malformation shall certainly deserve surgery. Surgery today, especially planned endoscopic surgery is very less invasive and effective. Especially when carried out by an experienced urologist. It is very appropriate to take your Chat Doctor.  The malformation that you clearly spell out describe the high frequency of Otis. With surgery, these infections are certainly bound to decrease. The pain medication is due to excessive contraction of ureters. Definitive treatment as earlier mentioned is surgical. Success rate with this surgery are high, and I shall advise you to accept the surgery, especially in a good center with an experienced urologist. Best regards, Luchuo, MD.
