| Summary: | A total of 36 children age-ranged from 2 up to 34 mos (17 boys and 19 girls) with previous surgery for the vesico-renal reflux has been evaluated. This disorder had most commonly been classified to be of higher degree (IV. and V. 45%) and often showed no response on repeated conservative treatment with even stronger antibiotics. The boys (27 ureters) and girls (31 ureters) underwent the 32 antireflux operations after Anderson-Glenn and those 26 after Politano-Leadbetter, respectively. In 6 ureters, their resection and modelling after Hendren was necessary to be done. On post-operative check-out, the 6 post-antireflux Anderson-Glenn's plastic ureters revealed on miction cystography the persistent vesico-renal reflux re-operated subsequently in accord with Politano-Leadbetter. From them, in 2 ureters the post-operative stricture has occurred in the site of ureter-to-bladder healing that was transitorily secured with percutaneous nephrostomy. |
