    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Reconstruction

    Background:

    • Obstructive ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) is a common cause of pediatric kidney issues.
    • Dismembered pyeloplasty is a standard surgical treatment for UPJ obstruction.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the long-term efficacy of the V-flap dismembered pyeloplasty technique.
    • To compare the V-flap technique with other dismembered pyeloplasty methods.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective review of 31 patients who underwent V-flap dismembered pyeloplasty.
    • Comparison with 57 patients who had Foley Y-V, Scardino, or Culp pyeloplasties.
    • Long-term follow-up data analysis.

    Main Results:

    • The V-flap technique demonstrated comparable long-term outcomes to other pyeloplasty methods.
