Nephrosclerosis is a condition that affects the small blood vessels within the kidneys and can lead to chronic kidney disease, but it is not known to cause hydronephrosis. The other options, renal calculi (kidney stones), pyelonephritis (kidney infection), and benign prostatic hypertrophy (enlarged prostate), can all cause obstruction or compression of the ureters or bladder outlet, leading to an accumulation of urine in the kidneys and subsequent hydronephrosis.
