Necrotising ureteritis after cystoplasty for leukoplakia of the bladder--an unusual complication.
Ileocaecocystoplasty was performed after subtotal cystectomy in a man with extensive leukoplakia of the bladder as a prophylaxis against carcinoma. 2 years later the ureter (contralateral  nephrectomy had previously been performed) became blocked by an unusual interstitial inflammation complicated by necrosis and calcification. This was excised, and the tail of the ileum anastomosed to the renal pelvis with a good result at 20 months.
