Title: Different Surgical Approaches for PUJO in 63 Cases
Abstract: ObjectiveTo probe into the best approach for PUJO. Methods Of the 63 PUJO patients in the study (70 renal units), 48 received Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasty, 6 pelviflapureteroplasty, 5 Y-V pyeloplasy, and 11 nephrectomy. 8 patients with giant and severe hydronephrosis were treated with A-H pyeloplasty,and an adjunctive nephroplication and nephropexy were performed at the same time, and ureteric stents for drainage were planted in all the patients. 11 child patients used improved double J catheters for inner drainage. Results A complete cure was achieved in the 51 follow-up cases for 6-60 months. ConclusionA-H pyeloplasty is the best approach. The application of A-H pyeloplasty with the aid of nephroplication and nephropexy in the treatment of giant hydronephrosis not only improves the appearance but also helps with drainage and promotes the recovery of the renal funtion. The improved double J catheter can also be used for inner drainage in children.
