Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to prospectively investigate the predictive value of ureteral jet dynamics measured by Doppler ultrasonography (D-US) to differentiate postrenal obstruction from other reasons after double-J stent (DJS) removal in patients who underwent renal transplantation (RTx) due to chronic renal failure.
