Spanish term or phrase: cuello del uréter
Un poco por debajo de su origen presenta un primer estrechamiento: el cuello del uréter.
Será pelviureteric junction?
No existe nada como ureteric neck o ureteral neck, aparentemente. Stricture es el estrechamiento, pero el cuello?

Explanation:
URETEROPELVIC JUNCTION OBSTRUCTION
Ureteropelvic junction obstruction is a condition where blockage occurs at the junction where the ureter attaches to the kidney. This results in decreased flow of urine down the ureter and an increase of fluid pressure inside the kidney. Increased pressure inside the kidney can over time cause deterioration of kidney function. The obstruction can be either congenital (the patient is born with it) or develop over time secondary to trauma or change in body shape with age. The blockage can be due to scar tissue, kinking, a blood vessel or rarely tumor.

uretero-pelvic junction (UPJ)


Explanation:
Obstruction of uretero-pelvic junction is the most common etiology of hydronefrosis in children. The objective of this study is analyze clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment and expose standards of diag-nosis and management of this pathology. Material and methods: This is a retrospective study of 175 children with uretero-pelvic junction obstruction.


Uretero-pelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction represents a set of obstructive processes that result from multiple etiologic factors. These include:
Aberrant renal vessel or fibrous band compressing the UPJ.
Intrinsic narrowing of the UPJ.
High insertion of the ureter into the renal pelvis.
Other causes such as stones, previous surgery, infections, iatrogenic injury, etc. may cause secondary UPJ obstruction.
Such an abnormality at the UPJ may hinder the appropriate propagation of peristaltic wave of urine.
