Abstract

Abstaract

The aim of the study was to evaluate the age dependence of efficacy and safety in high-pressure balloon dilatation (HPBD) for primary obstructive megaureter (POM) in children under 2 years.

 

Materials and methods.

From 2020 to 2022, we performed a single-center, unblinded study, with a total of 200 children, treated with high-pressure balloon dilatation for primary obstructive megaureter: 117 boys and 83 girls. Study included patients from 1 month to 2 years. The follow-up period was 1 year.

 

Results.

In this series the overall treatment effectiveness was 92.5%. In 15 cases treatment was not effective and these children proceeded with ureteral reimplantation. We didn’t achieve positive treatment results in children older than 15 months and our statistical model was not significant for failed cases. Treatment failure we presumed to be due to hard to dilate severe stenosis and extreme length of the stenotic area.

 

Conclusion.

In our study we found high-pressure balloon dilatation of uretero-vesical junction to be safe and effective method for treatment of primary obstructive megaureter in young children. The overall success rate was 92.5%. We recommend considering high-pressure balloon dilatation as the first line treatment for primary obstructive megaureter in young children. In failure cases we suggest to perform ureteral reimplantation.
