Brief Answer:
USG findings may indicate malrotated right kidney with fused kidneys.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
USG findings may indicate malrotated right kidney with fused kidneys at lower pole.This is a congenital anomoly.This may be the reason for mild hydro-ureteronephrosis as malrotated kidneys are prone to obstruction.
You may need CT scan or IVP(intravenous pyelography) for detailed evaluation.
Findings also indicate enlarged prostate.You are taking right medicines.You may need PSA estimation to rule out malignancy.
You should use anti-diabetes medicines regularly.It is good that it is under control.
Get well soon.
Hope I have answered your query.
Further queries are most welcome.
