Renal ultrasound to detect hydronephrosis: A need for routine imaging after radical hysterectomy?

► In case of clinical suspicion of hydronephrosis, imaging is likely to diagnose hydronephrosis requiring intervention. ► Patients who need intervention for hydronephrosis have symptoms, i.e. fever, abdominal and lumbar pain, which should be taken seriously. ► There is no place for routine renal ultrasound following radical hysterectomy.
