Does early upper tract diversion and delayed undiversion in megaureters secondary to severe posterior urethral valves lead to better renal outcomes?

Does early upper tract diversion and delayed undiversion in megaureters secondary to severe posterior urethral valves lead to better renal outcomes?

Background: There are conflicting reports for the management of severe posterior urethral valve (PUV) after ablation. The primary objective was to assess the renal outcomes using the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and secondary outcomes in severe PUVs who underwent early partially diver...
