Walekum salam. Reports attached are showing non functional lt kidney.. Nd
if obstruction is relived thr will be no benift.. So i dnt thnk urs or ny
urological intervention related salvaging kidney function will help much..
What is latest creatnine and urine c/e.. If urine is having infection and
patient is having fever so one can consider removing kidney surgically..
Otherwise continue rtine followup with creatinine and urine exam every 3
monthly basis.
