  • Title: [Ureteroureteral end-to-side anastomosis in kidney transplantation--personal experience].
    Author: Bruk V, Michalský R, Havránek P, Samlík J, Posolda T, Foltys A.
    Journal: Rozhl Chir; 1999 Aug; 78(8):399-402. PubMed ID: 10596583.
    Abstract:
    The most widely used way of reconstruction of the urinary pathways in transplantations of the kidney is at present a ureteroneocysto anastomosis. In some patients this type of reconstruction is difficult, if not impossible (adhesions in the lesser pelvis of the recipient, atrophic urinary bladder, short ureter of the graft, transplantation of child kidneys). In these instances the authors indicated a uretero-uretero end-to-side anastomosis. The authors performed in 13 patients a total of 17 uretero-uretero end-to-side anastomoses. In six transplantation of child kidneys en bloc was involved. During the postoperative period one female patient developed a urinary fistula from the renal pelvis of the graft which healed after conservative treatment. End-to-side uretero-uretero anastomosis is a simple and safe way of reconstruction of the urinary pathways in renal transplantations.
