Simplified experimental ureteroneocystostomy.
Improvement in renal transplantation has been the result of increased clinical experience and laboratory investigation. One of the causes of transplant failure is urinary leakage and slough at the ureteroneocystostomy site. A simplified extravesical ureteral implantation technique is described. This method has been used in more than 200 canine renal transplants producing consistently good results.
