Abstract
We report the case of a neonate who underwent
bladder exstrophy repair on the second day of life. Bilateral ureteral stents were placed intraoperatively. Postoperatively azotemia developed
secondary to kinking of the proximal ureter
bilaterally. Issues in diagnosis and management
are discussed.
