Abstract

We present our experience with 32 cases of ureterocele in children treated between 1972-1984. Five children with ureterocele in a single system underwent ureterocelectomy and ureteral reimplantation. Ten cases were managed by ureteropyeloanastomosis with ureterocelectomy and reimplantation with good results. Nine heminephrectomies and eight nephrectomies were done. The most common complication was ureterovesical stenosis in a "double barrel" reimplant. We were able to preserve renal parenchyma drained by a ureterocele in 15 cases.
