Hi
Thanks for the query.
What were your symptoms when the above tests were done? also do you have any significant past medical history?
The ultrasound findings which you have mentioned are often seen when there is an obstruction to the passage of urine, most commonly due to a stone. This can be confirmed by doing a CT Scan
Serum creatinine level of 2.13 is abnormal and indicates kidney disease. Please see a nephrologist who can do further tests and prescribe appropriate treatment.
Hope this helps
Good luck.
