title: [Ureterocalicostomy--reserved for special cases].
abstract: Uretero calicostomy is a valuable technique in patients with uretero-pelvic obstruction, if a reconstruction to obtain anatomical drainage cannot be achieved. Ten cases of inferior and one of superior uretero-calicostomy, in a total of ten patients, are reported. The operation was performed eight times as a primary and three times as a secondary procedure. Good drainage of the kidney was achieved in eight of the 11 cases. The indication for ureterocalicostomy is discussed. It is rare especially in cases of malignancy.
