Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated high-pressure balloon dilatation (HPBD) as a treatment for primary obstructive megaureter (POM) in pediatric patients using data from June 2018 to September 2019.
- A total of 14 patients, aged 5 months to 5 years, were treated, with 12 receiving HPBD and 2 requiring open surgery due to complications with the balloon catheter.
- Results showed no complications or recurrences in patients, with all showing improvement in ultrasonography after the procedure, suggesting HPBD could be a preferred first-line treatment for POM in children.
