This can remain asymptomatic or give repeated uti. It is not always compulsory to remove kidney unless patient is not symptomatic. You can do dtpa scan to see what is the relative function of this kidney. If less than 10%then it needs to be removed if patient is symptomatic. Acute pyelonephritis can happen but chronic must be preexisting before stone removal.
