Abstract
We conclude from this study that all Children with any degree of ANH are at greater risk of postnatal pathology as compared with the normal population. Moderate and severe cases have a significant risk of postnatal pathology.Mild cases have a potential risk of postnatal pathology as most of the mild cases resolve in postnatal follow up and we also conclude that renal artery resistance index has no role in neither diagnosis of ANH nor prediction of outcome of cases of ANH . In general, the percentage of postnatal pathology increases with increasing severity of ANH while RA RI shows no significant differences between cases of ANH and normal population in third trimester and, thus, it is recommended that all children with ANH should have a postnatal RUS. we recommend that Children with bilateral severe ANH, and children with ANH of any degree in a solitary kidney should have a postnatal RUS prior to discharge from hospital, the remainder of childrenwith ANH should have a RUS performedbetween 7 and 30 days. In cases with significant uropathy further follow up investigations should be done like VCUG and renal scintigraphy
