Benign ureteral polyps causing ureteropelvic junction obstruction were successfully treated in a 9-year-old boy. Surgical removal and pyeloplasty resolved gross hematuria and flank pain, with no recurrence observed.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Ureteral polyps are rare, particularly in children.
  • Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction can cause significant renal damage.

Observation:

  • A 9-year-old boy presented with gross hematuria and left flank pain.
  • Excretory urogram revealed left hydronephrosis secondary to UPJ obstruction.

Findings:

  • Surgical exploration identified two benign fibrovascular polyps at the left UPJ.
  • Partial ureterectomy with pyeloplasty was performed.
  • Pathological examination confirmed fibrovascular polyps of the ureter.

Implications:

  • This case highlights benign ureteral polyps as a treatable cause of UPJ obstruction in children.
