Our ML-based model performed well in predicting the risk of and time to re-intervention after pyeloplasty. The implementation of this ML-based approach is novel in pediatric urology and will likely help achieve personalized risk stratification for patients undergoing pyeloplasty. Further real-world validation is warranted.
