Imaging Diagnosis of Crossed Non‐Fused Renal Ectopia With Hydronephrosis in a Child [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports
Crossed non‐fused renal ectopia should be considered in children with unexplained hydronephrosis. Anatomical malposition does not necessarily indicate obstruction; functional assessment with MAG3 renogram is essential to guide appropriate management and ...

A cost-effectiveness model comparing urinary biomarkers with diuretic renogram in diagnosing ureteropelvic junction obstruction in children

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2023
Background and Aims: In this cost-effectiveness model, we compared the cost-effectiveness of commonly used urinary biomarkers with conventional diuretic renogram (DR) in diagnosing ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO).

Predictive Value of Cortical Transit Time on Diuretic Renography in Determining the Need for Surgery and Evaluating the Postoperative Outcome in Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction in Children: A Prospective Observational Study [PDF]

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons
Background: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is the most common cause of antenatal hydronephrosis. Although the majority of them improve with time, none of the existing diagnostic modalities can accurately predict which hydronephrotic kidney is ...

Pelviureteric junction obstruction due to vascular anomalies in children – Simple surgical options

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2022
Aims: Pelviureteric junction obstruction (PUJO) due to aberrant lower polar artery is conventionally managed with pyeloplasty. We present our experience of managing PUJO due to “vascular” anomalies-aberrant lower polar artery and vascular adhesions with ...
