Renal SWE as a Predictor After Pediatric Pyeloplasty for UPJO (UPJO-SWE)

28 mei 2026 bijgewerkt door: Hany Fathy Badawy, MD, Beni-Suef University

Renal Cortical Shear Wave Elastography as a Predictor of Functional Recovery After Open Pyeloplasty for Unilateral Pediatric Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction: A Prospective Cohort Study

Ureteropelvic junction obstruction is an important cause of hydronephrosis and potentially reversible renal functional impairment in children. Although open pyeloplasty is an effective standard treatment, the degree of postoperative renal functional recovery varies between patients.

This prospective observational cohort study will evaluate whether renal cortical shear wave elastography can predict renal functional recovery after open pyeloplasty in children with unilateral primary ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Renal cortical shear wave elastography will be assessed before surgery and during follow-up, and the change in elastography values will be compared with renal isotope findings after surgery.

The primary objective is to evaluate the predictive value of the change in renal cortical shear wave elastography from baseline to 3 months after surgery for isotope-defined renal functional recovery at 6 months after open pyeloplasty.

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

This is a prospective longitudinal observational cohort study conducted at the Department of Urology, Faculty of Medicine, Beni-Suef University.

The study will include children aged 6 months to 18 years with unilateral primary ureteropelvic junction obstruction who are scheduled for open dismembered pyeloplasty. Eligible children will undergo standard preoperative clinical assessment, laboratory investigations, renal ultrasonography, renal cortical shear wave elastography, and renal isotope assessment.

Preoperative imaging will include renal ultrasonography to assess hydronephrosis, anteroposterior pelvic diameter, and renal cortical thickness. Renal cortical shear wave elastography will be performed to measure cortical stiffness in the affected kidney. Renal isotope assessment will include diuretic renography for differential renal function and drainage assessment, with renal cortical scintigraphy when clinically indicated according to the approved protocol.

All included patients will undergo open dismembered pyeloplasty according to standard surgical principles. Postoperative follow-up will include clinical assessment, renal ultrasonography, and renal cortical shear wave elastography at 3 and 6 months. A repeat renal isotope study will be performed at 6 months after surgery to reassess differential renal function and drainage.

The primary outcome is the predictive performance of the change in renal cortical shear wave elastography from baseline to 3 months postoperatively for 6-month isotope-defined renal functional recovery after pyeloplasty. Secondary outcomes include the association between 3-month postoperative shear wave elastography and functional recovery, longitudinal changes in shear wave elastography, postoperative changes in differential renal function and drainage parameters, and improvement in ultrasonographic parameters after pyeloplasty.
