[Surgical indications for primary vesico-ureteral reflux in adult candidates for renal transplantation].
Eight out of thirty five candidates for renal transplantation at the Bordeaux transplantation center, between 1975 and 1983, all presenting with primary vesico-ureteric reflux, underwent nephro-ureterectomy. The remaining twenty seven were not treated surgically. The authors consider that no operation is required when the ureter is narrow and uninfected, but that dilated refluant and infected ureters should be treated by nephro-ureterectomy, at least unilaterally. In that event, the operation is performed in two stages, with the second stage being performed at the same time as the transplantation.
