Abstract

The goal in the treatment of stone disease causing infantile obstructive uropathy is to obtain a quick resolution of the obstruction using the least invasive treatment modality available and rendering the patient stone-free, if possible. Two infants with bilateral kidney stones, the first of whom also had ureteral stone, were referred to our clinic with acute renal failure and were treated successfully in a single session using minimally invasive methods. In this report, we discuss the management of these two cases, aged 9 and 26 months, which resulted in favorable outcomes.
