Background: Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is associated with complex anatomic problems, such as pelvic kidneys, giant hydronephrosis, crossed fused ectopia with L-shaped kidneys, and poses a real challenge in management. In this paper, we describe simple laparoscopic techniques for the management of these cases of atypical and complex UPJ obstruction.

Materials And Methods: From 2004 to 2008, 9 cases of UPJ obstruction with atypical anatomic problems were operated on laparoscopically at PGIMER (Chandigarh, India).
