[Predicting the complications of hydronephrosis in children after surgical interventions on the pyelo-ureteral
Abstract:
On the basis of mathematical analysis of the long-term results of operative treatment of 119 children with unilateral hydronephrosis caused by congenital obstruction of the pyelo-ureteral segment, the prognostically significant signs (risk factors) having unfavourable effect on the outcome of an operation were revealed. In retrospective analysis, the main types of the course of unilateral hydronephrosis in children were distinguished. In stable course, the conservative therapy is indicated, in non-stable--the intensive medicamentous therapy, or repeated corrective operation, in progressive--nephroureterectomy .
