Pyeloureteroplasty

Pyeloureteroplasty is a surgical operation aimed at restoring the patency of the ureter and renal pelvis by replacing a section of the ureter or pelvis when it is narrowed or blocked.

Pyeloureteroplasty is performed for various diseases, such as pyelonephritis, hydronephrosis, urolithiasis, ureteral stricture, as well as for injuries of the urinary system.

The operation is performed under general anesthesia and takes from 1 to 2 hours. During the operation, the surgeon makes an incision in the lumbar region and removes the affected area of ​​the ureter. Then an artificial prosthesis is installed in place of the removed area, which imitates a normal ureter. After installing the prosthesis, the surgeon checks its patency and tightness.

After the operation, the patient remains in the hospital for 3 to 7 days, then can be discharged home. For several weeks after surgery, you may experience lower back pain and discomfort in the abdominal area, which will go away on their own.

In general, pyeloureteroplasty is an effective treatment for many diseases of the urinary system and allows maintaining normal renal and urinary tract function. However, before performing the operation, it is necessary to conduct a complete examination of the patient and ensure that it will be safe and effective.

Surgical treatment of pyeloplasty should be performed either when the disease has entered the final phase of development, or after an unsuccessful course of conservative treatment. This implies the need for rational diagnosis, forecasting and timely execution of operations. A prerequisite for surgical treatment methods
