Ureterocalycostomy in the management of renal and ureteric trauma: report of a case.
The operation of ureterocalycostomy, although rarely indicated, may occasionally be most useful, and constitute a desirable alternative to removal of an injured kidney. A case of renal transection with avulsion at the pelvi-ureteric junction, managed successfully by carrying out this procedure, is now reported.
