Abstract

Ureterostomy in situ is a simple technique for supravesical urinary diversion. Although it was described about 30 years ago, the method has yet to become popular. We employed mainly this method as ureteral splinting and as temporary urine drainage in 24 patients with ureteropelvic operation, and recommend it as a useful method for technical simplicity and other merits.
