To the<br>best of our knowledge, there was no report of a patient who underwent this procedure in Thailand.<br><strong>Case presentation:</strong> A 4-year-old girl, who presented with obstructive anuria at birth was diagnosed with bilateral<br>ureteropelvic junction obstruction and small bladder capacity. At the age of 2 years old, she underwent a teapot<br>ureterocystoplasty with left to right transuretero-ureterostomy with right ureteral reimplantation. Postoperative<br>complication was observed. The bladder capacity was evaluated and kidney ultrasonography was done during the<br>follow up. There was no complication during the perioperative period. The bladder capacity was increased from<br>25 ml to 240 mL in 2 years postoperatively. Both kidneys also showed the decrease in degree of hydronephrosis.<br><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Ureterocystoplasty is a favorable treatment option for the patients with small bladder capacity and<br>marked hydroureter. The procedure itself is not difficult to perform. Moreover, there are no mucous related<br>complications and metabolic disturbances.</p> ER -
