title: [Primary obstructive megaureter- diagnosis and treatment].
abstract: The authors have treated 13 cases of primary obstructive megaureter (POM) in children, presenting without vesicoureteric reflux. The diagnostic possibilities and the surgical approach options are discussed. Both Cohen and Leadbetter--Politano uretero-vesical reimplantation techniques proved to be successful in this series. Ureteric folding was done in 2 cases. Reported final results are good in 10 cases.
