Dismembered pyeloplasty remains the principal surgical therapy for pediatric ureteropelvic junction obstruction. The method of postoperative drainage continues to be debated. We compared 7 stented versus 11 nonstented repairs. Diversion was not used for any patient. We evaluated 18 pediatric dismembered pyeloplasties performed for ureteropelvic junction obstruction from June 2001 to September 2002. Hospital stay and complication rates were reviewed. Of the 7 nonstented repairs urological complications developed in 2 including prolonged leakage and temporary obstruction that necessitated stenting. Non of the stented repairs devoloped urological complications. Median hospitalization was 6 days in each group. In children the outcome of stented pyeloplasty is similar to that of nonstented repair.
