Management of massively refluxing megaureters.
We report on 15 patients with massively refluxing megaureters in 28 renoureteral units. All had a history of urinary tract infections, and 14 were treated with initial vesical drainage. All had ureteral reimplantation, and half of those who initially underwent diversion did not require tailoring. Overall success was 87 per cent.
