    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Obstructive hydronephrosis diagnosis often requires invasive imaging.
    • Percutaneous antegrade pyelography is a valuable diagnostic tool.

    Observation:

    • Ultrasound guidance allows for precise localization and depth determination of the dilated renal pelvis.
    • The procedure is comparable in simplicity to cyst puncture.

    Findings:

    • Ultrasound-guided antegrade pyelography offers ease and accuracy in patients with obstructive hydronephrosis.
    • It provides significant diagnostic information regarding the nature of obstructive lesions.
    • This method can serve as an alternative or adjunct to retrograde pyelography.

    Implications:

    • Ultrasound enhances the safety and efficacy of antegrade pyelography.
