Sequential Ureterocalicostomy for An Adult Patient with Bilateral Ureteropelvic Obstruction Complicated with Kidney Stones

Abstract

Ureterocalicostomy is generally known as a salvage procedure performed for indications of ureteropelvic junction stricture recurrence and/or upper ureteric injury that precludes dependent ureteropelvic anastomosis. Here we report a patient with bilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction and an intrarenal pelvis anomaly complicated with pelvic and lower calyceal kidney stones treated with bilateral sequential ureterocalicostomy with successful outcomes at the 1-year follow-up.
