Circumcision by Plastibell: After applying a numbing (local anaesthetic) cream to the base of the penis, your baby will be given a local anaesthetic injection through the numb skin so that there is no pain on the foreskin. A parent can be with your baby and soothe him. He will be awake and can have a feed immediately after the procedure.
Hydronephrosis Surgery: Hydronephrosis is a descriptive term used to indicate the presence of a distended pelvicalyceal system. It does not necessarily indicate a state of disease.
The Society of Fetal Urology was the first to introduce descriptors to help assess the significance of antenatal hydronephrosis by assigning grade 1 to indicate dilatation of the pelvis alone, grade 2 to indicate that the calyces are also dilated and grade 3 to indicate that the renal parenchyma is also thinned out.
