Cost-Effectiveness and Clinical Outcomes of Double J Stent Versus Percutaneous Feeding Tube Placement Following Open Pyeloplasty in Pediatric Patients: A Prospective Randomized Single-center Study
Sponsor: Hayat Abad Medical Complex, Peshawar
Summary
Open pyeloplasty is a common surgical intervention for pediatric patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Post-operative management strategies, including the use of a double J stent and a percutaneous feeding tube, vary widely. While both options have demonstrated effectiveness in drainage, their relative clinical outcomes, costs, and overall value in pediatric urology remain unclear. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to compare the clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of these two post-operative interventions in pediatric patients undergoing open pyeloplasty.
