Eur Urol. 1979;5(6):347-51. doi: 10.1159/000473152.

Abstract

Homolateral pelvic ureteroureterostomies were performed in 25 patients presenting with complete duplication of the pyeloureteric tract. The procedure was performed in 16 cases of ureteroceles, in 7 cases of reflux in duplicated ureters, in 1 case of ectopic ureter and in 1 postoperative stenosis of one segment of a double ureter. According to the authors' experience this is the surgical treatment of choice in conservative surgical treatment.
