What is Ureteric Reimplantation?
Ureteric reimplantation involves creating a new connection between the ureter and the bladder to restore normal urine flow and prevent backflow (reflux) or obstruction. The surgery can be indicated in both pediatric and adult patients in conditions such as vesicoureteral reflux, ureteral strictures, injuries, or after tumor removal.
Why is Ureteric Reimplantation Performed?
- To treat vesicoureteral reflux (backflow of urine from bladder to kidney)
- To correct ureteral strictures causing obstruction and impaired urine drainage
- To repair ureteral injury or damage following trauma or previous surgeries
- Management of congenital ureteral abnormalities
The Ureteric Reimplantation Procedure
