Editing Pediatrics: UPJO & Megaureter (section)

== Ureteral Polyps ==

* Rare anomaly that may lead to obstruction and dilatation
* Most often found in the proximal third of the ureter.
* Management options include dismembered pyeloplasty with resection of the afflicted part of the ureter when polyps are near the UPJ or ureteral resection and ureteroureterostomy by open and even laparoscopic surgery. In cases of smaller polyps, ureteroscopic excision might be a feasible alternative
