Hi,
This is the report of your ultrasound or pyelography reporting that there is blockage to the pelvi-ureteric junction. This is the area wherein the collecting system in the kidney called pelvis gets narrowed to continue as ureter. The commonest causes are stones but not indicated in your report. Due to some muscle or nerve problems the normal function of the junction gets disturbed and thus causes some kinking or stricture formation causing such blockage as seen in your report.
I would advise you to consult an urologist for further evaluation, examination and investigations. Go for surgical correction as and when suggested. GFR is normal. Also, needed is kidney functions like urea and creatinine.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
