Merge w/ Obstructive uropathy

I think Obstructive uropathy should be merged into this page. They are really the same thing. Robbins equates the two terms on page 1012: "unrelieved obstruction almost always leads to permanent renal atrophy, termed hydronephrosis or obstructive uropathy." Chaldor (talk) 08:19, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They really aren't the same thing, though. Obstructive uropathy refers to a physiologic process and hydronephrosis is just an anatomic finding. Acarmack (talk) 13:43, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I realize that, but given that the primary sequale of obstructive uropathy is hydronephrosis, and there is only stub-level content in obstructive uropathy, it should be merged into the hydronephrosis section as a cause. If there is ever enough content to merit a split between the two concepts, then I would support that. However, as things currently stand, there is not enough content to merit an obstructive uropathy article all on its own when the hydronephrosis article is more comprehensive and so closely linked.

Might treatment also include Ureteric stent?
