Title: [Spontaneous intraperitoneal rupture of hydronephrosis in an infant]. Author: Raherinantenaina F, Rambel AH, Rakotosamimanana J, Rakototiana FA, Rantomalala HY. Journal: Arch Pediatr; 2012 Dec; 19(12):1316-8. PubMed ID: 23107088. Abstract: Spontaneous intraperitoneal rupture of hydronephrosis is a rare complication. We report a case in a 30-month old boy admitted for fever, with a temperature up to 38.5°C, and abdominal distension. The diagnosis was made intraoperatively. The treatment consisted of an emergency internal urinary diversion and a deferred definitive cure of the pyelo-ureteral junction stenosis. Surgical management in two steps is more prudent and beneficial.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
