"LONG-TERM RESULTS OF SURGICAL TREATMENT FOR CONGENITAL HYDRONEPHROSIS IN CHILDREN"

Despite the rapid development and adoption of modern high-tech methods, the issue of congenital hydronephrosis remains relevant and is a relatively common condition of the urinary system. In the arsenal of surgical treatment methods for congenital hydronephrosis (CH), laparoscopic pyeloplasty has become a more preferred and widely popular alternative to the classical approach, as it fully meets these new requirements. However, the outcomes of surgical treatment for CH are still not entirely satisfactory, due to a relatively high rate of postoperative complications and mortality. The significant proportion and inconsistency of treatment outcomes in patients with hydronephrosis necessitate a systematic approach to treatment tactics, accumulating experience from recent years. This will allow for the substantiated choice of either surgical or conservative treatment.
