Post‐pubertal stability of split renal function after pyeloplasty performed in childhood
Abstract Objectives While early outcomes after pyeloplasty are well‐documented, long‐term split renal function (SRF) stability, particularly beyond puberty, remains unclear. This study evaluates SRF after prepubertal pyeloplasty and identifies factors associated with late deterioration.
