title: Complications of pyeloplasty.
abstract: When successfully completed, the repair of pelviureteric junction obstruction can be an extremely gratifying experience. This success is the result of strict adherence to technical details in the conduct of the operation, regardless of which type of repair or method of drainage is used. Preservation of the ureteral vasculature, a water-tight anastomosis, prevention of infection, and careful placement and management of drains enhance the opportunity for a favorable outcome.
