Impact of posterior urethral valves on pediatric renal transplantation: A single‐center comparative study of 297 cases

Abstract

Good functional outcome could be achieved for patients with PUV if renal transplantation is necessary. Pre-transplant surgical procedures may be required such as nephroureterectomy, cytoplasty or injection of refluxing ureters. A robust anti-refluxing uretero-vesical anastomosis is important, and can be achieved by a Lich-Gregoir procedure.
