Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Duration of Hospital Stay (measured in days from the time of shifting child to post operative ward to hospital discharge) for both the groups  1-5 days 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Clavien-Madadi Grading for Postoperative Complications: The frequency & severity of complications will be categorized using the Clavien-Madadi classification (Yes/No) & further categorised into Grade I-II (minor complications) to Grade III-V (severe complications requiring invasive interventions). This will be assessed during hospital admission in post operative stay.

Renal Dynamic Scan Outcomes: Renal function & long-term postoperative outcomes will be assessed through renal dynamic scans (LLEC scan). This will be assessed in Follow up after 3-6 months
 
Assessment of secondary outcomes

1. During hospital stay
2. During follow up- between 3-6 months

Brief Summary  

Pelvic-ureteric junction obstruction (PUJO) is one of the most common causes of congenital upper urinary tract obstruction. Antenatal hydronephrosis is seen in 1 in 7 neonates. The incidence of PUJO is one in 1000 to one in 2000 live births. Various options available for management of clinically significant PUJO are Open, Laparoscopic, and Robotic assisted Pyeloplasty. With development of minimal access surgery, the main focus is on to reduce hospital stay to reduce overall cost. Average hospital stay for laparoscopic and robotic assisted paediatric pyeloplasty is 3-5 days. In this study, foley’s catheter will be removed on post operative day 1 in group 1 patient to facilitate earlier discharge from the hospital and to see clinically significant differences as a primary outcome.
