Vesico-ureteral reflux surgery in children
Results of the Cohen technique. Preliminary communication
Keywords:
urinary tract, urethral diseasesAbstract
Case material consisted of 35 children suffering from
vesicoureteral reflux. 23 were treated surgically using Cohen's recently developed technique of ureteral "advance".
It was applied in 36 hemisystems (including 3 duplicities: 39 ureteres) with 97,3 % good results, not with standing the fact that they were advanced cases with signs of renal lesion in 58 %.
There follows a brief physiopathologic review and the conclusion that an earlier diagnosis of this condition is required.
