  • Title: Pelviureteric obstruction in childhood.
    Author: Alton DJ.
    Journal: Radiol Clin North Am; 1977 Apr; 15(1):61-70. PubMed ID: 847112.
    Abstract:
    Pelviureteric junction obstruction is a common cause of intra-abdominal mass in childhood. The diagnosis is usually apparent when the characteristic signs of obstruction are seen at intravenous urography. A voiding cystourethrogram should be performed to exclude vesicoureteral reflux as the underlying condition. Obstruction may be further assessed by a diuretic load or by pressure-flow studies.
