New technique of antireflux ureteroileal anastomosis and its clinical experiences.
Free ileoureteral reflux in patients with an ileal conduit has been indicated as the etiology of late renal complications. A new technique for ureteroileal anastomosis was devised in an attempt to prevent reflux without causing obstruction. This anastomosis has been done on 20 ureters from 11 patients with pelvic malignancies. Satisfactory results have been obtained in patients with normal as well as dilated ureters, with no serious operative complications, no episodes of pyelonephritis and no renal deterioration. The ureteroileal junction created with this technique has been demonstrated radiographically and histologically.
