description To compare changes in collagen type 3, elastin, fibrosis and cajal cells through histopathological examination of the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) segments of pediatric and adult patients who had undergone AndersonHynes pyeloplasty for ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). Materials and Methods Histopathological evaluation was made of the UPJ segments of 52 patients who underwent Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasty for UPJO between January 2005 and January 2008. Patients were separated into 2 groups as pediatric, aged ≤15 years (group 1, n=10) and adult, aged >15 years (group 2, n=42). UPJ segments of both groups were compared histopathologically (collagen type 3, elastin, fibrosis and cajal cells). Radiographic evaluations were made with diuretic renogram and/or intravenous pyelography. Results Mean age of group 1 patients was 8.12±2.6 years (1-12 years) and of group 2 patients, 38.16±5.91 years (16-62 years). Mean follow-up period was 18 months (9-24 months). No statistically significant difference was determined between the groups in respect of collagen type 3, elastin, fibrosis or cajal cells (p>0.05). Conclusion As the pathology in the UPJ obstruction is a congenital defect, the histopathology does not change with age.
