چکیده
Purpose: We aimed to retrospectively compare the surgical and nonsurgical follow-up results of ureteropelvic junction obstruction without diuretic response. Methods: Twenty nine pediatric patients (10 Female (F), 19 Male (M); mean: 4.4 ± 3.96 years old, range: 0-15) without diuretic response were subject of this study. The diuretic renography, intravenous pyelography, voiding and ultrasonography were performed within one month and were compared with control ultrasonography and/or diuretic renography results in 7.4 ± 6.7 month follow-up. Results: Among patients with surgical follow-up 11 (100%) had recovery. In the follow-up group which consist of 18 patients 7 patients (39%) had recovery, 5 had stable disease and 6 had additional pathologies (one ureter dilatation, infection in three, one worsening of diuretic response, one volume loss). Conclusion: In patients without diuretic response in scintigraphy even without conclusive morphological results, surgery is more appropriate approach.

The definition of fetal and neonatal urinary tract obstruction is a very difficult task requiring confirmation of reduced renal function and hydronephrosis. In this study we followed a series of consecutive patients with intrauterine hydronephrosis that persisted during post-natal life. METHODS 116...

متن کاملResults of Pyeloplasty in patients with Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction in Pediatric Surgery Center in Bandar Abbas
Introduction: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is associated with inadequate urine drainage from renal pelvis into ureter. UPJO results from incomplete recanalization of proximal ureter during fetal period which finally leads to hydrostatic distention of renal pelvis and calyces. Diagnosis is based on clinical symptoms, ultrasound, and diuretic isotopic renogram. Various surgical metho...
