Vesicoscopic Ureteral Reimplantation: A Minimally Invasive Technique for the Definitive Repair of Vesicoureteral Reflux
Figure 5
(a) Creation of the
submucosal tunnels started by gently lifting up on mucosa and sharp dissection
of the appropriate plane. (b) The right ureter has
been passed through the tunnel and sutured to the original hiatus on the
contralateral side. (c) Both ureters have been
transposed and sutured in place. The left mucosal opening is then closed with absorbable
suture. (d) Completed repair prior
to removing feeding tubes.
