Abstract:
Fibroepithelial polyps represent a rare cause of intrinsic ureteropelvic junction obstruction in the pediatric population, accounting for less than 5% of cases. Herein, we present this peculiar case of a 10-year-old boy with multiple large intraluminal FEPs resembling Medusa's hair and the challenges associated with its subsequent treatment plan.
