Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is the most common renal anomaly observed in infants with congenital hydronephrosis. The present study presents a five-month-old infant with severe right ureteropelvic obstruction. Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasty intervention significantly improved renal function. The study concludes that early surgical intervention is the definitive treatment for avoiding kidney impairment and its complications.
