Abstract

Background/Purpose: Flaw of a fluid through a collapsible tube is under the influence of various factors including the external compressing pressure. Because the intraabdominal pressure may compress the ureter, an experimental study has been planned to determine and compare the normal intraabdominal and renal pelvic pressures and the alterations in renal pelvic pressure in response to the increments in intraabdominal pressure in the rabbits.
