2024年12月13日 · Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is a blockage in the renal pelvis of your kidney, causing pee to slow or stop completely. Treatment may include surgery.

Ureteropelvic junction obstruction is a condition where blockage occurs at the junction where the ureter attaches to the kidney. This results in decreased flow of urine down the ureter and an …

2024年1月26日 · A blockage where the ureter and kidney meet (ureteropelvic junction) may cause the kidney to swell and eventually stop working. This condition can be congenital or can develop with typical childhood growth, result from an injury or scarring, or in rare cases, develop from a …

2023年7月10日 · Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is a well-recognized clinical entity that results in impaired urine flow from the renal pelvis into the ureter and, if not detected and treated properly, can result in complete loss of the affected kidney.

2024年11月12日 · Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction or pelviureteric junction (PUJ) obstruction partially obstructs the passage of urine from the renal pelvis to the ureter. It is the most frequent cause of hydronephrosis in the foetus and can also present in adulthood.

The ureteropelvic junction is located where the pelvis of the kidney meets the ureter (the tube that drains urine into the bladder). The term ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction describes a blockage to this area.

Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is when part of the kidney is blocked. Most often it is blocked at the renal pelvis. This is where the kidney attaches to one of the ureters (the tubes that carry urine to the bladder). The blockage slows or stops the flow of urine out of the kidney. Urine can then build up and damage the kidney.

Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is a condition where the ureter, the tube that connects the kidney to the bladder, is blocked at the top portion where it leaves the kidney.

A ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is a blockage of urine flow from the renal pelvis to the ureter. The renal pelvis is the part of the kidney that collects the urine made by the kidney and the ureter is the tube that carries the urine from the renal pelvis to the bladder (see figure 1).

Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction occurs when the area connecting the renal pelvis (part of the kidney) to one of two tubes that connect with the bladder (ureter) becomes blocked, causing urine to build up, which damages the kidneys. A UPJ obstruction can also occur if a blood vessel is positioned incorrectly over the ureter.
