In cases of reflux 3.--5. degrees the direct representation by filling of the bladder. 3. The full postoperative judgment of the condition of defluxion, which is of great value in risk patients. 4. The long-term control within the renal dispensary for the exclusion of late stenosations and the morphological judgment of the further development of the kidney.
