Calicocystostomy in the treatment of giant hydronephrosis.
Calicocystostomy or calicopyelocystostomy was performed for the treatment of hydronephrosis of ectopic or transplanted kidney into the region of the iliac fossa. To the best of our knowledge there is no description of this treatment modality for hydronephrosis in a normally situated kidney. This prompted us to present 2 such cases observed in our clinic.
