Long term functional success after pyeloplasty for pelvi-ureteral junction obstruction in unilateral poorly functioning kidney in exclusively adults population

2019 
Abstract Objectives To assess long term clinical and functional outcomes post pyeloplasty in unilateral UPJO in poorly functioning kidneys in exclusive adult population. Materials and methods We reviewed the database of all cases admitted with unilateral UPJO treated with pyeloplasty and preoperative split renal function (SRF) was 20% and Results Among 211 patients. The mean SRF was 20.5 ± 6.6%. After a median follow up of 67.1 ± 11.8 months, SRF increased significantly to 23.5 ± 7.5 (p Conclusion Pyeloplasty provides high rates of functional success in poorly functioning kidneys. After 12 months follow up, SRF seems to be static without deterioration.
