J. Kapelushnik et al., HYDRONEPHROSIS IN CHILDREN AFTER BONE-MARROW TRANSPLANTATION - CASE-REPORTS, Bone marrow transplantation, 17(5), 1996, pp. 873-875
Hydronephrosis post-bone marrow transplantation (BMT) diagnosed in fiv
e children, was caused by hemorrhagic cystitis and blood clots in the
bladder, congenital uretro-pelvic junction stenosis and ureteral obstr
uction due to adenoviral infection, Patients received conservative the
rapy to treat the symptoms, However, hydronephrosis did not change the
outcome of BMT, Therefore, we suggest less aggressive procedures to t
reat children with hydronephrosis.
