BACKGROUND
It is difficult to diagnose intermittent hydronephrosis and to decide the indication of surgical intervention. We investigated 23 cases of intermittent hydronephrosis.
METHODS
From 1978 to 1995, a total of 23 patients were diagnosed as intermittent hydronephrosis in our institution. We
BACKGROUND
Giant hydronephrosis is a relatively rare condition caused by obstruction of the renal collecting system that can present with a great number of different types of abdominal signs and symptoms.
METHODS
A 40-year-old man without past medical history presented to the Emergency Department
A case is described of a 4 year-old girl who presented with chronic episodic abdominal pain with vomiting. Physical examination was unremarkable aside from hypertension. Point-of-care renal ultrasound showed hydronephrosis, leading to a diagnosis of ureteropelvic junction obstruction presenting with
OBJECTIVE
We sought to assess the clinical and imaging findings in intermittent hydronephrosis secondary to ureteropelvic junction obstruction, with particular emphasis on the characteristic ultrasonographic findings.
METHODS
This prospective, longitudinal, observational study included all children
A clinical study was conducted on the intermittent hydronephrosis in children. Of 78 children with hydronephrosis due to ureteropelvic junction obstruction operated between 1991 and 1995, 5 had intermittent hydronephrosis. All 5 patients were boys between 6 months and 6 years of age. Presenting
OBJECTIVE
Hydronephrosis is a frequently observed but understudied complication in patients with cervical cancer. To better characterize hydronephrosis in cervical cancer patients, the current study sought (1) to describe hydronephrosis-associated morbidity and (2) to analyze the prognostic effect
BACKGROUND
The consequences of spinal cord injury upon urinary bladder are readily recognised by patients and health care professionals, since neuropathic bladder manifests itself as urinary incontinence, or retention of urine. But health care professionals and persons with spinal cord injury may
To present a rare case of "huge" hydronephrosis causing distortion of large vessels and formation of a thrombus in the inferior vena cava. Multidisciplinary treatment was applied with particular focus on pyeloplasty utilizing a robot-assisted laparoscopic Cyclic vomiting syndrome is a disorder of many causes. The major challenge is to label the disorder as idiopathic or primary only when all possible etiologies, particularly those that can be specifically treated, have been ruled out. In retrospect, our patient had subtle prenatal and early postnatal
A nine-month-old entire female terrier cross was presented with intermittent anorexia, vomiting and recent onset of abdominal pain and distension. A diagnosis of unilateral hydronephrosis was made following ultrasound examination and intravenous urography, but no cause was identified. Subsequent
Obstruction of a ureter secondary to tumor, fibrosis, or inflammation has been well documented in published reports. A review of English studies revealed no reported cases of hydronephrosis of a native kidney resulting from hyperstimulation of an ovary. We report a case of hydronephrosis in a woman
Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer in the world and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Signet-ring cell type is the most malicious subtype. We report a case of advanced stage gastric adenocarcinoma case post-radical gastrectomy who presented with nausea, vomiting, and
OBJECTIVE
To establish the diagnostic profile in children who present with cyclic vomiting.
METHODS
We studied 225 children < 18 years of age who presented to our pediatric gastroenterology service from 1986 to 1997 with at least three discrete episodes of vomiting between which they were well. To
Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) causes a reduction in the urine flow from the renal pelvis into the ureter. Untreated UPJO may cause hydronephrosis, chronic infection or urolithiasis and will often result in progressive deterioration of renal function. Most cases of UPJO are congenital;
