Abstract
From October 1970 to January 1986, 808 patients underwent renal transplant ureteroneocystostomy by an extravesical technique. Complications related to the anastomosis and/or ureter were reviewed. There were 23 total complications, for an overall urological complication rate of 2.8 per cent. Of these complications 17 were related to the ureteroneocystostomy, for an anastomotic complication rate of 2.1 per cent. Complications were almost universally repaired by another operation. Two patients died and 1 lost the allograft because of urological complications.
