“…In 1949, when Anderson and Hynes described their technique consisting of dismembered pyeloplasty with ureteral spatulation, the procedure widespread and rapidly became the most common procedure for UPJS. [3] The morbidity associated to lumbotomy incision forced the development of new minimally invasive techniques: anterograde endopyelotomy, retrograde endopyelotomy, retrograde endopyelotomy with electrosurgical cutting wire and low-pressure tamponade balloon (Acucise) and laparoscopic pyeloplasty. [4] Growing evidence suggests that laparoscopic pyeloplasty is becoming the standard of care in adults.…”

“…También tienen especial importancia las complicaciones relacionadas con la inserción del catéter ureteral. Gamarra et al 15 describían varias complicaciones en la colocación anterógrada del cat éter en el 25% de sus pacientes, por lo que proponían un doble abordaje laparoscópico y endoscópico, colocando el catéter ureteral de forma retrógrada justo antes de finalizar la anastomosis. También en 2 de nuestros casos iniciales el catéter 2 J no había descendido a vejiga y tuvo que recolocarse mediante ureteroscopia.…”
LP is currently the procedure of choice at our center because of its lower morbidity and similar results to OP, despite the need for a certain laparoscopic skill and a usually longer operating time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
