Abstract
The varying pathological anatomy of the vesicoureteral junction in cases of vesicoureteral reflux requires the use of intraoperative judgment in the proper management of individual cases. A rigidly standardized operative technique should not be followed. Modification of the Politano-Leadbetter procedure, using various forms of ureteral advancement, is beneficial in selected cases.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
