Abstract
Our long-term results of prenatally detected posterior urethral valves confirm that early valve ablation can be considered as the primary treatment in the majority of patients, without the need for preoperative drainage or diversion. Gestational age at diagnosis and volume of amniotic fluid are significant predictors of postnatal renal outcome.
