Bilateral Renal Autotransplantation with Direct Pyelocystostomy in a Patient with Frequent Disabling Nephroureterolithiasis

Abstract

A case with disabling nephroureterolithiasis, initially most frequent from the right side, later also from the left kidney, is presented. Conservative treatment did not improve the condition and bilateral renal autotransplantation with pyelocystostomies was performed. Follow-up so far has been uneventful. In highly selected cases this is a useful alternative treatment.
