  • Title: [Experience with uretero-neocystostomy in 338 kidney transplantations].
    Author: Rohrmoser L, Ulshöfer B, Feiber H, Jürgens C, Rodeck G.
    Journal: Helv Chir Acta; 1991 Sep; 58(3):277-80. PubMed ID: 1769845.
    Abstract:
    In 338 consecutive human kidney transplants since 1972 uretero-neocystostomy was performed in a typical manner. The technique is a modification of Leadbetter's ureterosigmoid anastomosis and it is used for all cases of ureteral reimplantation at our institution. The rate of operative complications belonging to the urinary tract is 4.8%. In 29% out of 31 reexamined patients a vesico-ureteral reflux to the transplant appeared. We believe that the demonstrated method is useful for reconstruction of the urinary tract in renal transplants.
