Abstract

Giant hydronephrosis is defined as the accumulation of more than 1L of fluid in the collecting system of the kidney. We present a case of giant hydronephrosis containing 18 L of fluid in a 13- year- old girl resulting from neglected PUJ obstruction. She had a single stage nephrectomy and did very well post-op.
