Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,treatment options and prognosis of duplex kidneys in children.Methods Data were retrospectively collected from all patients who were hospitalized at Shengjing Hospital Affiliated to China Medical University from January 2008 to May 201 5.The surgery to retain moie-ty nephron was performed in 30 cases:1 2 cases underwent non common sheath ureter reimplantation,4 cases of the patients had common sheath ureter reimplantation,1 2 patients underwent transurethral resection of the cyst,1 case of them had pyeloureterostomy,and the other patients underwent lower -pole pyeloplasty.Removal of renal moiety was performed in 52 cases:43 patients underwent upper -pole heminephrectomy,8 patients underwent upper pole hemi-nephrectomy and lower -pole ureter reimplantation,and 1 case of the patients had upper -pole heminephrectomy and lower -pole ureteroplasty.Results A total of 54 cases were followed up,the follow -up rate reached 65.9%,the follow -up time lasting 2 months to 4 years,with an average time of 9.53 months.All clinical symptoms disappeared after remove moiety operation.There were small ureteral cysts but compared with the preoperative condition,the symp-toms reduced significantly in 4 cases.All clinical symptoms disappeared in patients whose nephron was retained after operation,and hydronephrosis was alleviated.De novo 2 degree of vesicoureteral reflux was found in 3 out of 1 2 pa-tients who underwent transurethral puncture of the cyst.Conclusions The clinical manifestations of duplex kidney have some characteristics which include recurrent urinary tract infection,normal intermittent voiding urine dripping, abdominal pain,urethral orifice mass,abdominal mass and aggravation of hydronephrosis.Duplex kidney is often asso-ciated with cardiac malformation and cryptorchidism.The preoperative testicular examination and echocardiography should be performed.The choice of operation depends on the clinical manifestation,auxiliary examination results and comprehensive analysis.The prognosis of duplex kidney is well,but patients need to be further followed up af-ter operation.
