  • Title: [Modified ureterocystostomy: a low rate of urological complications in kidney transplantation].
    Author: Schmid T, Spielberger M, Sandbichler P, Margreiter R.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1988 Jul 15; 113(28-29):1134-7. PubMed ID: 3292190.
    Abstract:
    A total of 31 urological complications (4.6%) were noted between January 1974 and July 1987 among 670 renal transplantations: ureteral stenoses (n = 18), ureteral leaks (n = 8), vesicorenal reflux in the transplant with chronic urinary-tract infection (n = 1), and urolithiasis in the area of the transplant (n = 4). There were six ureteral leaks among 110 extravesical ureterocystoneostomies, while there were only two leaks among 560 anastomoses done by a modified method of Leadbetter and Politano. Restoration of urinary flow integrity was achieved without organ loss or functional impairment.
