Abstract
The ultrasonic antenatal diagnosis of obstructive uropathies is now common. This study of 43 cases in which the mean follow-up is more than 2 years already allows us to show the importance of early diagnosis. The importance of a thorough postnatal examination is emphasised as well as the importance of preventing urinary tract infection. Although relief of the obstruction in the neonatal period in many cases allows an excellent recovery due to the exceptional qualities of the urinary tract at this age, there remain serious uropathies associated with significant renal dysplasia, for which ultrasonic diagnosis in utero is still insufficient. The results obtained allow us to be optimistic regarding the prognosis for many of these children.
