The protective arm of the renin‐angiotensin system may counteract the intense inflammatory process in fetuses with posterior urethral valves
Objective: Posterior urethral valve is the most common lower urinary tract obstruction in male children. A high percentage of patients with posterior urethral valve evolve to end‐stage renal disease. Previous studies showed that cytokines, chemokines, and components of the renin-angiotensin system c...
