Duplicated kidneys, though rare, are common in pediatric urinary issues. For children with complete kidney duplication and symptoms or complications, surgery is often needed. Ureteroureterostomy (UU) is a common procedure for this condition. This study aims to evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy and safety of laparoscopic ureteroureterostomy (LUU) and open ureteroureterostomy (OUU) in the treatment of pediatric duplicated kidneys.
