For more than a century, the condition now known as Idiopathic
Hydronephrosis has been recognised as a clinical entity, and
following the original description by Rayer in 1841 a variety of
procedures were devised in attempts to correct the condition
surgically. Most of these early methods were introduced in the last
decade of the nineteenth century by several illustrious clinicians,
including Trendelenburg, KOster, Fenger and Sutton. For many years
diagnosis was based purely upon the patients presenting signs and
symptoms and not until the early part of this century was
technology available to assist in the pre-operative diagnosis of
the condition. Early methods depended upon radiological techniques,
and the introduction of the retrograde pyelogram by Voelcker and
Lichtenberg in 1906 represented a significant advance in diagnostic
methodology. Other methods also dependent upon radiographic
techniques were subsequently introduced, including urography in the
late 1930s by Swick, and more recently, the method of cineradio
graphy, as pioneered with considerable success by Peter Narath in
the decade following World War II. During the past 50 years a
variety of surgical procedures have been introduced for the
treatment of idiopathic hydronephrosis. That so many different
methods have been devised suggests that no one specific technique
is capable of achieving a complete cure in all cases."
