  • Title: Follow-up of 13 children after ureterosigmoidostomy.
    Author: Bakker NJ, van Damme KJ, de Voogt HJ.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 1976 Jul; 51(7):544-9. PubMed ID: 962364.
    Abstract:
    Follow-up of 13 children who had had a ureterosigmoid anastomosis 3 1/2 to 10 years previously and whose initial urogram had been satisfactory, showed that growth was normal and that there was no serious metabolic disorder. In particular whole-body potassium did not differ significantly from normal values (as given by Langham, 1961). Asymptomatic urinary infection is the chief hazard in these cases but is difficult to diagnose and may lead to progressive dilatation of the ureters.
