The first patient was a 33-year-old man who had lost 6 cm of the proximal left ureter after two attempts to repair a ureteral stricture.

The second patient was a 66-year-old woman with a poorly functioning right kidney and total bilateral ureteral strictures resulting from radiotherapy for metastatic cervical cancer. She underwent complete left ureteral substitution with a double Monti sigmoid tube in association with a Boari flap. With a follow-up of 5.75 and 3.25 years, both patients were clinically doing well with a stable split renal function on mercaptotriglycylglycine renal scan and no evidence of obstruction. The man had required exploratory laparotomy 4 weeks postoperatively to correct a small bowel obstruction secondary to a bowel kink. The transverse...Continue Reading
