Detection of the Heterozygous Recurrent MAX p.(Arg60Gln) Variant in Two Females Confirms and Expands the Phenotypic Spectrum of Polydactyly–Macrocephaly Syndrome

Clinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 4, Page 788-795, April 2026.
We identified a recurrent heterozygous MAX c.179G>A:p.Arg60Gln variant in two unrelated females affected with the emerging phenotypes of MAX‐associated polydactyly‐macrocephaly syndrome. We propose that genitourinary abnormalities, including Mayer–Rokitanski–Kuster–Hauser syndrome in one individual, are an expansion of the known phenotypes associated ...

Is there a difference in the number of interstitial cells, neurons, presence of fibrosis and inflammation in ureteropelvic junction tissues of patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction with and without crossing vessels?

Urology Research and Practice, 2019
Objective: We compared the number of interstitial cells (ICs), nerves, presence of fibrosis and inflammation at the level of full-thickness human ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) tissues obtained from normal subjects, and patients with UPJ obstruction with ...

Prenatal Diagnosis of Renal Anomalies Associated With a Novel Causative Variant in RAP1B Gene

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
A case of prenatal renal cystic disease and unilateral renal agenesis is reported. Molecular investigations including TRIO next‐generation sequencing analysis using the Clinical exome sequencing protocol identified the c.179G>T, p.(Gly60Val) “de novo” variant in a heterozygous state in the RAP1B gene.

Avoiding the Pitfall: Ectopic Pelvic Kidney Mimicking a Pelvic Mass in a Patient With Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections. A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
A 55‐year‐old woman with recurrent UTIs and a fixed pelvic mass on examination was intially suspected of having a neoplasm. Contrast‐enhanced CT revealed an ectopic pelvic kidney (yellow arrow, adjacent to uterus U), confirming an asymptomatic congenital anomaly as the cause. Imaging is essential to avoid misdiagnosis and iatrogenic injury.

Laparoscopic Approach to a Rare Cause of Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction in a Child: Ureteral Polyp

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery Reports, 2015
Fibroepithelial polyps are a rare underlying reason of ureteropelvic junction obstruction. In the past, open surgery was the only option. However, due to development of minimal invasive technics, treatment alternatives have been changed.

A Qualitative Review of Clinical Decision‐Making Using [99mTc]Tc‐Mercaptoacetyltriglycine Renal Scintigraphy in Patients With Malignant Ureteral Obstruction

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 106-114, March 2026.
This case series evaluated the clinical utility of [99mTc]Tc‐MAG3 renal scintigraphy in managing malignant ureteral obstruction (MUO). Renal scintigraphy‐guided decision‐making allowed safe conservative management in selected patients, particularly those with a non‐functional excretion pattern, and helped avoid unnecessary urinary drainage.

Can the inferior mesenteric artery cause ureteropelvic junction obstruction? [PDF]

Radiol Case Rep
Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is a pathological condition characterized by obstruction of the junction between the renal pelvis and ureter, often resulting in dilatation of the renal collecting system.

Causal Link Between Obstructive Uropathy, Estradiol, and Risk of Breast Cancer: Insights From Observational Evidence and Genetic Association Analyses

Medicine Advances, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 90-102, March 2026.
Based on the observational analysis of UK Biobank clinical data, urinary tract obstruction showed a significant negative association with breast cancer risk, accompanied by substantially lower systemic estradiol levels in individuals with obstruction.
