    Abstract:
    629 ureteric reimplantations were performed in 356 children. Indications for reimplantation were 315 uni or bilateral ureteral reflux, 248 primary reflux and 67 secondary to ureteric duplication, ureterocele, vesical diverticula, neurogenic bladder, bladder neck obstruction, or ureteral obstruction, and 52 megaureters, 38 primary and 14 secondary megaureters. 61 reimplantations (14 megaureters) by Leadbetter-Politano, and 568 reimplantations (58 megaureters) by Cohen procedure were performed. 3 psoas hitching and 15 ureteroplasties, 14 Hendren and 1 Kalicinski procedures, were necessary. Primary results in reflux were 98.5% of success with Cohen operation and 100% with Leadbetter-Politano operation. Results were not so good in megaureter, 70% of success with Leadbetter-Politano operation and 75% with Cohen. Results were better with psoas hitching and ureteroplasty (86.5% of success).
