Ureteroneocystostomy / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

Complications of ureteroneocystostomy are relatively rare. Nevertheless, it would be desirable to use and operative approach that would prevent all complications. Based on our experiences with ureteroneocystostomy during the last 5.6 years, the causes, the operative methods and results were discussed. The results were as follows 1. Ureteroneocystostomy was performed in cases of primary reflux( 7 ureters), megaureter (6), ectopic ureter(5), posterior urethral valve(4) and ureterocele(3) as congenital causes. Acquired causes were iatrogenic ( 7 ureters) , tuberculosis(6), bladder ca(3) and traumatic ureteral injury(2) And causes of remained three ureters couldn`t be seeked. 2. Thirty nine of forty six ureters was performed with the method of submucosal tunnel and 7 with end to side. Among them 11 ureters with diffuse ureteral stricture were combined with the method of Vesico-psoas hitch. 3. Thirty five of thirty eight ureters was successfully corrected. Postoperative complications were contracted VUR in 2 cases, ipsilateral VUR, obstruction and unimproved renal function in each one case.
