title: Cutaneous transureteroureterostomy as a form of diversion in children with a compromised urinary tract.
abstract: Our experience with children who require supravesical diversion in the face of a compromised urinary tract indicates that in selected cases transureteroureterostomy with cutaneous ureterostomy will lead to a stabilized urinary tract that will be free from infection and postoperative complications.
