Abstract

A technique for complete urinary diversion was used in the management of urinary fistula following renal transplantation. Nephrostomy was modified by closing the renal pelvis at the ureteropelvic junction. No impairment of renal function occurred. In the presence of infection, it is reasonable first to treat the infection and postpone the reconstructive procedure until the infection has subsided.
