Renal histologic changes in congenital ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO), although well documented, are sparsely studied in children. This study aims to establish a histological grading depending on the glomerular and tubulo-interstitial changes in hydronephrotic kidneys and determine correlation with age at surgery and impact on function post-pyeloplasty. A renal cortical wedge biopsy was obtained after pyeloplasty and histological changes were graded from 1 to 4.

The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of GFR measured using ROI from ultrasound technique in diuretic renography for evaluating postoperative outcomes in infants under one year old with congenital hydronephrosis. A retrospective analysis was conducted on thirty infants who underwent abdominal ultrasound and diuretic renography before and after surgery, obtaining preoperative and postoperative gGFRs and uGFRs (measured using ROI from ultrasound technique) determined using the Gates method and ultrasonic-assisted drawing ROI technique, respectively. A comparative study was performed on total GFR as well as individual kidney GFR before and after intervention.
