Introduction to UPJ Obstruction

Ureteropelvic Junction (UPJ) Obstruction is a condition where the flow of urine from the kidney to the bladder is blocked at the junction of the ureter and the kidney. This obstruction can lead to kidney swelling (hydronephrosis), pain, and potential kidney damage if left untreated. Our clinic specializes in advanced diagnostic and treatment options to ensure optimal kidney function and long-term health.
