Question
A 6-year-old girl has been diagnosed with ureteral reflux and frequent urinary tract infections. How should she be treated?
Answer
Based on the description, the girl may require a recanalization surgery for ureteral obstruction. Recommended procedures include hysteroscopic COOK coil recanalization or partial salpingectomy and reanastomosis. The former involves inserting a COOK coil into the interstitial part of the fallopian tube through a hysteroscope, using the separation, dilation effects of the guide wire sleeve, and the impact of fluid to recanalize the interstitial and isthmus parts of the fallopian tube.
