Laparoscopic pyeloplasty (LP) has been widely used to treat ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO); however, no previous series of reports has focused on analyzing the factors that influence the complications and outcomes of LP. In this study, we analyzed the risk factors related to complications of LP, especially that of restenosis. The aim of this study is to perform meta-analysis of relevant comparative studies to analyze the risk factors of restenosis after LP treatment with ureteral stent as of 30 April 2021.
