–The role of laparoscopic nephrectomy for multicystic dysplastic kidney is controversial.
•It is recommended that children with multicystic dysplastic kidney should undergo renal ultrasonography every 6–12 months until age 5 years or until involution is noted.
•Patients with multicystic dysplastic kidney and contralateral VUR should receive antibiotic prophylaxis during infancy and early childhood. It has been estimated that:
–Spontaneous resolution of VUR occurred in 89 % of patients with grades I and II VUR
–Spontaneous resolution of VUR occurred in only 50 % of patients with grades III and IV VUR.
•Abdominal ultrasounds are done during follow ups to ensure the healthy kidney is functioning properly and that the unhealthy kidney is not causing adverse effects.
•It has been recommended that patients with multicystic dysplastic kidney should be fol- lowed-up lifelong whether or not involution has occurred or a nephrectomy has been performed. Long-term follow-up of patients with a single kidney revealed:
–Hypertension in 27–47 % of patients
–Proteinuria in 23–47 % of patients
–Renal insufficiency in 3–13 % of patients
