PUJ Obstruction

PUJ (Pelvic-Ureteric Junction) obstruction is a condition that affects the flow of urine from the kidneys to the bladder. It occurs when there is a blockage or narrowing at the point where the ureter meets the renal pelvis.

Symptoms

  • Frequent urge to urinate but only passing small amounts
  • Pain in the side or back
  • Swollen kidney (hydronephrosis)
  • Urinary tract infections
  • Nausea or vomiting

Through Laparoscopic pyeloplasty, the obstruction can be treated.
