Abstract
Ureteroneocystostomy (UNC) is the implantation of the ureter onto the bladder. The indications for this are:
-
Implantation of a donor ureter during renal allotransplantation
-
Re-implantation of the native ureter during renal autotransplantation (a treatment for complex renal artery aneurysm)
-
Re-implantation of the native or transplant ureter due to disease of the distal ureter (such as vesicoureteral reflux in native kidneys, or ureteric stenosis in transplant kidneys)
