Pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction has been treated in 3 patients using a percutaneous modification of the Davis intubated ureterostomy technique. A 10-French tube is introduced into the obstructed upper ureter through a percutaneous nephrostomy puncture. Full thickness incision of the upper ureter and pelvi-ureteric junction is then carried out using
