Advanced Keyhole Surgery for PUJ Obstruction
Laparoscopic pyeloplasty is a minimally invasive (keyhole) surgical procedure performed to treat Pelvi‑Ureteric Junction (PUJ) obstruction, a condition where urine flow from the kidney to the ureter is blocked. If left untreated, PUJ obstruction can lead to kidney swelling, recurrent infections, pain, and gradual loss of kidney function.
We offer advanced laparoscopic pyeloplasty in Delhi and Bahadurgarh, using modern techniques to provide durable relief, preserve kidney function, and ensure faster recovery.
What is PUJ Obstruction?
PUJ obstruction occurs when there is a narrowing or blockage at the junction where the kidney pelvis meets the ureter. It may be congenital (present from birth) or develop later due to scarring, stones, or previous infections.
Laparoscopic pyeloplasty is a reconstructive kidney surgery where the narrowed PUJ segment is removed and the healthy ureter is re‑attached to the kidney pelvis using small incisions and a camera‑guided approach.
This technique provides outcomes comparable to open surgery but with significantly less pain and quicker recovery.
