[Value of alpha adrenergic blocking agents in the complex treatment of hydronephrosis in children]

Results of a pharmacotest with phentolamine show that in hydronephrosis patients the amplitude of contractions of the ureter became 3 times greater, the tonometrical index was 2 times greater, the basic pressure became 2 times less. The including of adrenoblocking agents into the complex treatment of patients with functional obstruction of the ureteropelvic system facilitated considerable dilatation of the calyceal-pelvic system. Plastic operations were performed in 21 patients.
