Abstract
Background: Congenital pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction [PUJO] occurs when there is impairment of flow of urine from the renal pelvis to the proximal ureter due to inherited abnormalities of pelvi-ureteric junction [PUJ]. The presentation is usually at the 4th or 5th decade of life. It may rarely be associated with crossing lower pole vessel [CLPV]. Treatment is by Anderson- Hynes [dismembered] pyeloplasty which remove the abnormal PUJ and transposes the PUJ anterior to the offending vessels. I report a case of 45-year-old man with congenital PUJO associated with crossing lower pole vessel vessels who had dismembered Anderson -Hynes pyeloplasty.
