This study shows that uretero-vesical reimplantation is effective for primary obstructive megaureter in children. Both Cohen and Leadbetter-Politano techniques achieved good outcomes in most cases.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Urology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Congenital Abnormalities

Background:

  • Primary obstructive megaureter (POM) is a congenital condition affecting the ureter.
  • It often requires surgical intervention in pediatric cases.
  • This study focuses on POM cases without associated vesicoureteric reflux.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate diagnostic and surgical options for primary obstructive megaureter in children.
  • To assess the efficacy of different uretero-vesical reimplantation techniques.
  • To report outcomes of surgical management for POM without reflux.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 13 pediatric cases with primary obstructive megaureter.
  • Surgical treatment involving uretero-vesical reimplantation (Cohen and Leadbetter-Politano techniques).

  • Ureteric folding was performed in two selected cases.

    • Main Results:

    • Both Cohen and Leadbetter-Politano reimplantation techniques demonstrated success.
    • Good final results were reported in 10 out of 13 treated cases.
    • Ureteric folding was an adjunct procedure in specific instances.

    Conclusions:

    • Uretero-vesical reimplantation is a successful surgical approach for pediatric primary obstructive megaureter.
    • The choice between Cohen and Leadbetter-Politano techniques can be tailored to patient needs.
    • Conservative management with good outcomes is achievable for POM without reflux.
