title: [Transposition of the distal urethra in surgical treatment of recurrent lower urinary tract infection in women].
abstract: One of the procedures used in surgical treatment of recurrent infections of the lower urinary tracts is transposition of the distal urethra. This procedure was used in 27 females. Persistent clinical recovery was achieved in 81.5% of cases. One patient withdrew. One patient (3.7%) did not respond, 11.1% required further conservative treatment. Transposition of distal urethra improves treatment outcomes in recurrent infections of the lower urinary tracts in cases when the disease is caused by vaginal ectopia or hypermotility of the external urethra.
