The evolution of sonographic techniques that allow accurate prenatal diagnosis of obstructive uropathies has led to consideration of specific therapeutic options in the care of such lesions. After briefly reviewing historical developments, the authors examine recent clinical experience with the prenatal treatment of congenital obstructive uropathies and consider possible clinical criteria for selecting appropriate candidates for such interventions.
