Uploaded and Shared in Youtube by: NationwideChildrens Renal hypoplasia, dysplasia, and aplasia refer to conditions in which the kidneys do not form correctly while a baby is in the womb. Combined, these conditions occur in 2-4% of the population. These conditions are the most common cause of kidney failure in children, although many children do not have any problems from these conditions and go undiagnosed. Renal aplasia occurs when the kidney does not form at all. Renal hypoplasia occurs when the kidney forms but it is too small. Renal dysplasia is a condition in which your kidney has abnormal tissue in it. One or both of your kidneys can be involved in all these conditions. There is no specific treatment for these conditions other than controlling salt and water balance and helping and monitoring your childs growth, if needed.
