RESULTS
Operative time was 5h20min. Child needed 6 postoperative days to manage post-obstruction relief
polyuria. Stent was removed at the outpatient clinic on 10
th
day. One year postoperative URO
MRI confirmed the significant improvement of the hydronephrosis. At three years FU, the child is
asymptomatic, renal function is normal; ultrasound shows significant reduction of the dilatation with
normal renal growth.
CONCLUSIONS
Double stenosis on a single kidney can be treated simultaneously through retroperitoneal laparo-
scopic approach. Safety and efficiency could be achieved in our case by: side to side anastomosis
on one site, meticulous bipolar dissection, 3 mm instruments, use of fine suturing, and careful
postoperative metabolic surveillance.

PURPOSE
We aimed to compare the laparoscopic and retroperitoneoscopic approach for partial nephrectomy
in infants and children with duplex kidney.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
The data of 102 patients underwent partial nephrectomy in a 5-years period using MIS procedures
were analyzed. Fifty-two children underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) and 50 chil-
dren underwent retroperitoneoscopic partial nephrectomy (RPN). Average age at surgery was
4.2 years. Statistical analysis was performed using χ2 test with Yates corrections and t-student test.
