Presentation
In patients with a prenatal presentation, postnatal studies are required to differentiate MCDK from hydronephrosis. A sonogram should be obtained before a neonate is discharged from the nursery when MCDK is suspected. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Pseudoaneurysms can be extrahepatic, paraportal, or intrahepatic, with presentation depending on location. [foamem.com]
Complications Occasionally an MCDK may become infected 2-3 or present with persistent mass effect or secondary hypertension 3. [radiopaedia.org]
In children usually congenital urinary tract anomalies are present as contributing factors. [readbyqxmd.com]
These tumors usually present in childhood, but infrequently, these also present in adults. Patients often complain of hematuria, flank pain, or abdominal pain. [pubtransformer.com]

Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology: An intrinsic narrowing (e.g., smooth muscle deficiency, increased fibrosis and collagen, stricture, valve, kinking, and altered peristalsis) occurs at the level of the UPJ, leading to dilatation of the pelvicalyceal system. 1, 43 On occasion [clinicalgate.com]
