What Does Mild Right Pelviectasis Without Frank Hydronephrosis Mean?

I was diagnosed with mild right pelviectasis without Frank hydronephrosis. The right kidney is otherwise normal measuring 10.2 cm in length. Small left kidney measuring 5.6 cm with no left hydronephrosis. What does this exactly mean? I have known about the small left kidney.
