Abstract:
A Clinical observation of 34 Patients who had taken pyeloureterolasty due to UPJ stricture during 11 years was made. Operative success rate in followed-up patients was 85% and success rate was dismembered pyeloplasty was 88%. Diminition of caliectasis was observed in 78% in 23 kidneys of 20 patients who had taken postoperative urogaraphy. Improved drainage on ureterogram was thought to be a more appropriate indicator than diminition of calietasis in postoperative radiologic evaluation of pyeloureteroplasty.
