Abstract
Cyclophosphamide cystitis with a high grade of vesicoureteral reflux can lead to rapid renal deterioration. Conventional ureteral reimplantation is inadvisable and urinary diversion, although providing a temporary solution, could lead to long-term complications, particularly in children. We present a case of cyclophosphamide cystitis with vesicoureteral reflux and upper tract deterioration managed successfully with ileocecocystoplasty. This method of management should be considered early in such a patient.Keywords
