Management of ureteral complications in renal transplantation: prevention and treatment.

Urinary anastomotic complications following renal transplantation cause significant patient morbidity. In ureteric reconstruction, different techniques are used to reduce complications (such as leakage or obstruction). In this study, we suggested two aspects of management of the complications of ureteral anastamosis: ureteral spatulation more than 10 mm for prevention and percutaneous nephrostomy and balloon dilatation as the first steps of treatment.
