Abstract
The overall rate of UPJ repair has not changed during the last 19 years, but there has been a substantial trend toward repair at an earlier age. This finding suggests that prenatal ultrasound has led to earlier diagnosis of UPJ obstruction, allowing earlier repair and obviating later repair. We also report the novel finding of a decreasing rate of pyeloplasty in males with age. This decrease was not observed in females.
