Revision of ureteral reimplantation by the transverse advancement technique

Abstract

Antireflux ureteral reimplantation may be performed by a variety of techniques with consistently satisfactory results. Complications, such as persistent reflux and postoperative ureterovesical obstruction, may be encountered occasionally and, when significant, they will necessitate a revision operation. Herein 6 cases are described of failed ureteral reimplantation, which were revised successfully by performing a transverse advancement ureteral reimplantation.
