Abstract
For urologists the most challenging problem offered by the neonate is obstructive uropathy, which comprises more than half of the urologic diseases in newborns. In most instances a good result can be attained by surgical correction of these anomalies. Morbidity and mortality are within acceptable limits. The use of preliminary, temporary diversion for obstructive uropathy did not enhance the chances for a good long-term result.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
