    Abstract:
    We evaluated the efficacy of surgical treatment in 171 children with primary megaureters. Operations were performed between 1980-1997. The average time of follow-up was 7.8 years. The treatment was effective in 149 (87.1%) children. The results were good in 92.8% of cases with obturative type of megaureters and in 81.6% with refluxive type of M.O. The worst results were obtained in children aged under 2 years of live (21.9%). The primary amputation was performed in 48 (28%) children and the secondary in 14 (8.2%) children.
