Ureteral fibroepithelial polyps in children.
Fibroepithelial polyps of the ureter presenting as pelviureteric junction (PUJ) obstruction in two boys are reported. These neoplasms are uncommon, especially in children. Surgical excision of the PUJ with the polyp and dismembered pyeloplasty was performed in each case. Postoperative recoveries were uneventful.
