Abstract:
From January, 1981 to May, l988, 46 patients underwent renal transplant ureteroneocystostomy by a transvesical technique in 12 and extravesical ureteroneocystostomy in 34. There were 2 complications of urine leakage related to the transvesical ureteroneocystostomy, while no instance of complication relates to the extravesical ureteroneocystostomy. Urine leakages were repaired by reoperation of the extravesical ureteroneocystostomy. Renal transplant extravesical ureteroneocystostomy is simple, fast and effective method to reestablish urinary tract continuity and provides minimal complication.
