A young female patient underwent ureteral resection and Hynes-Anderson pyeloureteroplasty because of pyeloureteral junction stenosis and a ureteral valve (UV), which caused hydronephrosis. Despite using ultrasonography and intravenous urography the ureteral valve was observed only on exploration. UV should be considered as a possible cause of upper urinary tract obstruction; retrograde urography can be essential.

Background: Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) and urinary tract infections (UTIs) are significant clinical concerns in children. Children who have UTIs are also at risk of developing long-term complications, notably kidney disease and scarring UTIs. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of urinary tract infection and its determinants among under-five children with congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract in Addis Ababa.

A rectus sheath haematoma (RSH) is a relatively rare cause of acute abdominal pain that is becoming more prevalent due to an increase in anticoagulant therapy. Of its associated complications, acute obstructive uropathy is exceedingly rare. This is a case of a 62-year-old lady who presented with abdominal pain caused by an RSH which then led to obstructive uropathy.

Introduction: Posterior urethral valves (PUV) and ureterovesical junction obstruction (UVJO) are common etiologies of lower urinary tract obstruction. The primary objective of therapy is to alleviate the obstruction in the urinary system. Temporary urinary diversion may be necessary in certain situations, such as Urinary tract infection (UTI), sepsis, and unchanging hydronephrosis.

Introduction: We report a progressive treatment of a 31-year-old patient with end-stage renal disease secondary to congenital posterior urethral valve and valve bladder syndrome. He underwent a laser ablation of the urethral valve at the age of six, but on continuance of renal function deterioration ultimately a bilateral ureterocutaneostomy (UC) in the left lower abdomen had to be fashioned as a supravesical urinary diversion.
Case Presentation: For the management of dialysis dependent end-stage renal disease, an allogenic renal transplantation was planned.
