title: Extraperitoneal ureterocystoplasty with transureteroureterostomy.
abstract: Ureterocystoplasty enables the bladder to be reliably enlarged and the resultant neobladder to be lined by urothelium. Many techniques have been described for the operative management of the lower ureter, and a number of alternatives have been suggested for reconstruction of the upper renal tract and bladder. This report describes a new approach that allows renal preservation, transureteroureterostomy, and ureterocystoplasty through an extraperitoneal approach.
