Abstract
A new antirefluxing ureteroileal anastomosis is described in which the implanted ureter is placed between the ileal segment and psoas muscle . The procedure was studied in eight experimental dogs, which were obs erved for 20 weeks. Radiologic and bacteriologic examinations, necrops y assessment and histopathologic results provided evidence that this i leo-psoas tunnel technique allows a unidirectional, non-obstructed flo w of urine. The technique could be applied when ileal replacement of t he ureter is necessary or in association with continent bladder replac ement.
