Abstract:
The ureteral complications after renal transplantation are urine leakage, stenosis and vesicoureteral reflux. The treatment is influenced by immunosuppression and difficult surgery (for bleeding and fibrosis). We report 8 cases with ureteral complication after renal transplantation. Stenosis were present in 5 cases: we performed ureterocystoneostomy by Politano-Leadbetter technique in 4 and pyelocystoanastomosis in 1. Vesicoureteral reflux were present in 3 cases: we preformed ureterocystoneostomy by Politano-Leadbetter technique in 2 and endoscopic infiltration with teflon of ureterovesical junction in 1. At present all patients have a normal renal function and absence of urinary tract infection.
