Experience with Pyeloureterostomy in Renal Transplantation

Pyeloureterostomy was used as the preferred method of urinary tract reconstruction in 260 of 371 consecutive renal allograft procedures performed between September 1967 and December 1980. Initially chromic catgut suture was used for the anastomosis in 96 patients with ten complications developing (10.4%). Because of the high incidence of anastomotic leakage (8.3%) with chromic catgut suture, the next 101 pyeloureterostomies were constructed using 7–0 Tevdek. Although urinary leakage occurred in only five of these patients (4.9%), late stone formation occurred along the suture material in three patients (2.9%), influencing the conversion to 7–0 Prolene for this anastomosis. With this suture material, only two complications have occurred in 63 subsequent pyeloureterostomies (3.1%), neither related to the anastomosis. In comparison, eight complications developed in 111 patients who underwent reconstruction with the Politano-Leadbetter method of ureteroneocystostomy (7.2%). The currently recommended method for pyeloureterostomy, as described, when combined with meticulous attention to technical details has made pyeloureterostomy a safe and effective method of urinary tract reconstruction in renal transplant recipients, with morbidity indistinguishable from that of ureteroneocystostomy.
