Bilateral asymmetric hydronephrosis. no blockage on ct or nuclear scan. symptoms of prolapse, incontinence, slow flow. doc wants upjo surgery. agree?

Depends on Uroflow: For my patients, whether I recommend UPJ valve surgery or not is dependent on the results of the UroFlow studies that I have all Urologists perform on patients with hydronephrosis (even if it's treated). Without knowing the UroFlow results (numbers), it's hard for me to guide you as to whether I agree or disagree with the Urologists' recommendation. Your symptoms suggest UPJO but not its severity.
