Assessment of the individual renal function in chronic unilateral renal obstruction using functional CT as compared to 99mTc-DTPA renal scan
Introduction: The selection of optimal treatment of obstructive nephrouropathy requires information about the functional status of each kidney. Nuclear renal scanning objectively measure differential renal function, multiple studies have demonstrated the role of assessment of renal perfusion and GFR with triphasic CT. The aim of this study is to assess the role of CT based on renal parenchyma...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between the histopathologic findings and the postoperative course of children surgically treated for ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-eight patients operated for unilateral UPJ obstruction from 1998 to 2005 with adequate histopathologic specimens and postoperative follow up were retrospectively reviewed. Specimens ...
متن کاملNecrosis of the Renal Pelvis Associated with Obstruction of the Ureters *
A previous report25 described massive hemorrhage and accumulation of turbid fluid in the subcapsular and perirenal tissues after ligation of the ureters in dogs. More detailed study has shown that these lesions result from extension of necrosis from the fornices of the pelvis through the renal parenchyma with consequent leakage of the retained fluid into the surrounding tissue. The necrosis may...

Postoperative long-term renal rupture is rarely reported in flexible ureteroscopy treatment of calculus in the upper urinary tract.

متن کاملRobot-assisted Pyeloureterostomy in Bifid Renal Pelvis With Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction of the Lower Moiety
Duplications of the urinary collecting system and pyelo-ureteral junction obstruction (PUJO) are common, but the simultaneous presence of both anomalies is rarely encountered. In incomplete duplicated systems, PUJO usually affects the lower moiety. We present the case of a 5-year old boy with left bifid renal pelvis and hydronephosis of the lower moiety treated by robot-assisted pyeloureterostomy.
