ABSTRACT
A new antireflux surgical technique was introduced by Gil Vernet in 1984, which is simple and rapidly accomplished without mobilization of the distal ureter. The technique involves a single stitch that implicates the trigone, effectively lengthening the intramural segment of terminal ureter, which is particularly effective in patients with megatrigone. We applied this new technique in 2 children with vesicoureteral reflux, of whom one had unilateral grade III reflux and the other bilateral grade II and grade IV reflux. Vesicoureteral reflux and urinary tract infection were lost at follow up voiding cystourethrogram and urinalysis 4 months after operation. We think that this new technique is excellent method in surgical treatment of vesicoureteral reflux.
