  • Title: Urinary tract diversion and undiversion in the pediatric age group.
    Author: Mitchell ME.
    Journal: Surg Clin North Am; 1981 Oct; 61(5):1147-64. PubMed ID: 7313929.
    Abstract:
    Undiversion is an interesting phenomenon but may in part be self-limiting. As the experience with techniques in reconstruction increases, the need for diversion may give way to that of earlier correction of the original pathology, Thus, reversal of diversion by offering a wealth of experience in reconstruction may well lead to its own demise. Nevertheless, even with newer reconstructive techniques, there is, to date, a definite place for diversion of the urinary tract in the pediatric age group and there are now many pediatric patients still to be considered candidates for undiversion
