ABSTRACT
The widespread use of prenatal ultrasonography has resulted in a dramatic increase in the number of hydronephrosis. Timing. safety and benefits of performing pyeloplasty in infancy currently are being questioned. to evaluate the effect of age on the pyeloplasty. the results of 9 pyeloplasties done during infancy ( including 4 pyeloplasties in neonate) were compared with those of 11 pyeloplasties in older age group. The surgical results in two groups were equally good, with all of cases having an improved or stable IVP or ultrasonogram taken 6 months postoperatively. Complications were few and were more common in the older age group. in which 5 cases required a secondary procedure. In conclusion, pyeloplasty during infancy was as safe and successful as that of older age group.
