J. Stormann et al., THE JOINT CARE OF CHILDREN WITH OBSTRUCTI VE UROPATHY - 2 CASE-REPORTS, Zeitschrift fur Geburtshilfe und Perinatologie, 199(6), 1995, pp. 257-261
The joint care of children with obstructive uropathy by perinatologist
s, pediatric intensivists, pediatric nephrologists and urologists can
preserve as much renal function as possible. Complications such as uri
nary tract infections and problems with renal insufficiency can be pre
vented. Preterm delivery for early surgical decompression of the urina
ry tract postpartal should be performed only in exceptional cases. We
want to underline that supporting and counselling parents in coping wi
th severe findings and prognosis of the disease is among our main aims
.
