End-to-end transureteroureterostomy: a report of 2 cases.
We report on 2 patients with extensive unilateral ureteral lesions and defunctionalized contralateral ureters who were treated by end-to-end transureteroureterostomy. Favorable results were achieved in both cases. Prolonged periods of ureteral non-function do not appear to be a contradiction to this procedure.
