  • Title: [Long-term results following percutaneous reanastomosis of complete ureteral occlusion].
    Author: Künkel M, Korth K.
    Journal: Urologe A; 1990 Nov; 29(6):321-4. PubMed ID: 2291256.
    Abstract:
    The combination of percutaneous access to the kidney with ureterorenoscopy makes reanastomization of completely occluded ureters possible. The method has proved primising in cases where excessive previous surgery means that reintervention at the same site can be expected to be difficult. Up to now, 20 patients with complete ureteral occlusion have been successfully operated upon by endoscopic means, and 11 of them have been followed-up for more than 6 months (av. 26.1 +/- 13.4 months). In all these patients, the reanastomized ureter has remained patent.
