Abstract

A 32-year-old primiparous woman presented with a painful left-sided giant hydronephrotic kidney secondary to pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction (PUJO). Renal ultrasonography, intravenous urography and MAG-3 renography. Symptomatic non-functioning left PUJO in first trimester. Following counselling, the patient had an uncomplicated retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy at 9 weeks' gestation for symptom relief and to prevent future risks to both mother and fetus during the remainder of the pregnancy. She had an uneventful recovery and delivered a healthy 3.2 kg male at term per vaginum.
