Abstract
In extensive disease or injury to the ureter, the options are autotransplantation or ileal ureteral substitution [1]. The metabolic and physiological effects of ileal ureter must be kept in mind prior to embarking on the procedure. The general contra indications are renal impairment when the serum creatinine is greater than 2 mg/dl, bladder dysfunction, bladder outlet obstruction, inflammatory bowel disease or radiation enteritis.
