What is pyeloplasty?
pyeloplasty is a surgical reconstruction of a part of the kidney called the renal pelvis. This surgery is used to treat a condition called uretero-Pervice obstruction of the intersection. Pyeloplasty is most often carried out in young children, because the obstruction of the uretero-pervic intersection tends to be a congenital condition, but this condition can also be diagnosed in older children and adults. Uretero-Pervic obstruction is more common in male children than in female children and has a total frequency between one of 5,000 and one of 8,000. This prevents the kidneys from being released correctly, leading to inflammation and enlargement of kidneys, renal pain and mass development at the blocking site. In children, this also leads to the inability to prosper. Children with this condition are exposed to a higher risk of rinary tracts, which are the most common symptoms that are in addition to the side pain, side weight and blood in the urine. Most cases of uretero-PERVIC obstruction are considered a result of defects that occur during the early fetal development. Several eventsIt can lead to uretero-PERVIC obstruction, including the differentiation of renal cells after five weeks and differentiation of urinary cells after 16 weeks. Minor abnormalities can cause obstruction that is eventually resolved with a growing child; The main abnormalities require pyeloplasty correction.
During surgery on pyeloplasty, the patient is given a general anesthetic. The cut is made below the level of the obstacle in the lower side. Part of the kidneys of the kidneys is removed because this part is generally enlarged and unhealthy due to chronic obstruction. Once this part of Kidney has been removed, the ureter is connected to the remaining kidney pelvic tissue to create a new, undisturbed intersection of Uretero-Pervic.
In some cases, a small tube called a stent is inserted into the urea to ensure that the urinary urine moreter remains functional while the new intersection is healing. Stent is flexible, alE firm, preventing urea collapse and helping the kidneys to drain properly. Pipes that drain to the skin surface can also be placed to ensure that there is no accumulation of fluids at the site of pyeloplasty. After their placement, the procedure is completed. The whole procedure usually takes two to three hours.
Once the operation is completed, the patient may return home after two or three days. The drainage tubes are removed after one or two weeks. After the procedure, the patient must take oral antibiotics for two or more weeks to prevent infection, and subsequent ultrasound are scheduled at regular intervals to monitor kidney health. Review care should be required in case of symptoms such as the difficulty of urination, high temperature, vomiting and any symptoms that have been experienced before the operation.
