چکیده
Received January 2009 Accepted November 2010 INTRODUCTION Ureteropelvic-junction-obstruction (UPJO) occurs in 22% to 37% of ectopic kidneys.(1) Laparoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty (LDP) is an acceptable treatment for UPJO in pediatric patients with orthotropic kidneys.(2,3) Laparoscopic flap techniques have less favorable results than LDP in adult patients with orthotropic kidneys.(3) To our best knowledge, laparoscopic flap pyeloplasty of UPJO has not been previously reported in pediatric patients with pelvic kidneys. We report laparoscopic treatment of UPJO due to high insertion in a child with a pelvic kidney.

متن کاملRobot-Assisted Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty with Stone Removal in an Ectopic Pelvic Kidney
Ectopic pelvic kidneys with ureteropelvic junction obstruction and stones present a treatment challenge for the minimally invasive surgeon. A pure laparoscopic approach is less invasive than an open approach but is technically difficult with longer operative time. The use of the da Vinci robotic interface has the potential to refine the laparoscopic technique and improve outcomes. Here, we pres...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Pyeloplasty for Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction in Crossed Fused Ectopic Pelvic Kidney
Crossed fused renal ectopia is a rare anomaly and may be associated with pelvic ureteric junction obstruction (PUJO). The L-shaped fusion variety is even rarer. We report such a case with a crossed fused ectopic pelvic kidney (L-type) with PUJO and its successful laparoscopic management. Through this report we emphasize the importance of adequate preoperative imaging and intraoperative details ...
