Operative treatment of vesicoureteric reflux in duplicated ureters.
Over a 10-year period 321 children underwent 490 antireflux operations. 21 duplicated vesicoureteric reflux was observed in 18 patients. The follow-up and the comparison with other authors results in 334 patients indicate that the submucosal inlay of the duplicated ureters is a particularly suitable operation. The Politano-Leadbetter and the Lich-Grégoir techniques yield good results.
