Authors
Abstract:
We reviewed our management of children with uretero pelvic Junction stenosis due to various pathology in a series of 30 Hydronephrotic kidneys in 27children from 1359 till 1365 in pediatric Surgery Ward to Taleghany Medical Center.

Prenatal diagnosis, management and outcome were studied retrospectively in 24 cases of unilateral and bilateral uretero-pelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). Moderate-to-marked pelvic dilatation was documented in 19 out of 24 cases.
