Published by National Institutes of Health | U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | Metadata Last Checked: September 06, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-09-06
Background Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a well known therapeutic modality for stone diseases of childhood. Antegrade and retrograde endopyelotomies are also well defined options of treatment for secondary ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Yet there are few reports regarding endoscopic therapy of intrinsic ureteropelvic junction obstruction. To our knowledge, there exist only a few reports of endosurgical treatment of children with stone disease and with concomitant intrinsic ureteropelvic junction obstruction, in the literature. Case presentation We present the endoscopic management of stone disease and concomitant intrinsic ureteropelvic junction obstruction of a child in one session. Conclusion Percutaneous nephrolithotomy and antegrade endopyelotomy is combined safely with successful outcome in a child.
