Modified Differential Renal Function Measurement Revised by Renal Cross Sectional Area in Children with Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction
PURPOSE Diuretic (99m)Tc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Tc-DTPA) renal scans may show false-negative or false-positive results in children with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). We evaluated whether modified differential renal function (DRF) revised by the renal cross-sectional area on imaging study may be a more valuable predictor than conventional DRF on a renal scan for decidin...
متن کاملCrossing renal vessel causing ureteropelvic junction obstruction.
Ureteropelvic junction UPJ obstruction is caused by the presence of an aperistaltic dysplastic segment at the UPJ. Besides this intrinsic etiology, extrinsic factors, mainly crossing vessels, maybe the causative factor. The controversy regarding the functional significance of vessels crossing at the UPJ is not a new one, though this debate has been resurrected in recent years because of improve...
متن کاملRenal osteodystrophy secondary to congenital bilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction.
A 4-year-old girl presented with progressive distension of the abdomen and bowing of the legs (genu valgum) since birth. She was anemic, with a blood pressure of 180/110 mmHg. The serum level of creatinine was 1.7 mg/dL. She had hypocalcemia, and elevated serum level of phosphorous and parathyroid hormones. Ultrasonography revealed bilateral grossly hydronephrotic kidneys with thinned out paren...
متن کاملevaluation of renal histopathological changes, as a predictor of recoverability of renal function following pyeloplasty for ureteropelvic junction obstruction
conclusions the severity of pathological changes in renal parenchyma, due to upjo, is a good predictor of renal function recoverability, after pyeloplasty. the orus, with drf > 35%, usually have normal (grade i) renal biopsy and might be expected to present better functional recoverability after pyeloplasty. results this study showed a linear relationship between the severity of histological ch...
متن کاملSonographic Renal Parenchymal Measurements for the Evaluation and Management of Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction in Children
PURPOSE To correlate sonographic renal parenchymal measurements among patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) labeled society of fetal urology (SFU) hydronephrosis grades 1-4 and to examine whether sonographic renal parenchymal measurements could be used to differentiate conservative vs. surgical management. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective chart review and sonographic rena...
