Abstract
There is no universally applicable method for the treatment of vesicoureteral reflux. In choosing the conservative measures or surgical technique, aetiology, the presence of other congenital or acquired urogenital changes, and the consequences of vesicoureteral reflux should be taken into consideration.
During the past 10 years anti-reflux operations have been performed in 66 children; neoimplantation in 24, Boari's plastic operation in 33 and Gregoir's operations in 5 cases. The results of operation have been more favourable in bladder neck sclerosis, congenital anomalies of the orifice and megaureter than in the cases of inflammation. As far as the different operations are concerned, Boari's plastic operation has proved to produce the best results.
