A hydronephrosis is when the the pelvis of the kidney and eventually even the calyx becomes dilated as the fluid accumulates within it. Hydroureter is a dilation of the ureter as the urine accumulates within it and causes distension. A hydroureter is unlikely to occur with a blockage at the ureteropelvic junction â this is where the kidney (renal pelvis) and ureter meet.
