Abstract: | 65 adult patients subjected to direct uretero-vesical implantation without the use of a recognized antirefluxing technique were followed up to 9 years. Good results could be achieved in 90.8%, whereas failures were mainly due to radiation damage and malignant tumors. A postoperative stenosis was observed five times. Reflux was demonstrable in 7 cases, of which, however, only one was of pathologic significance. |
