Abstract
We report 3 cases of urinary leakage occurring in male kidney transpla nt recipients within 6 weeks of renal transplantation. Voiding cystome trography showed that high voiding detrusor pressure was the contribut ing factor. Endoscopic bladder outlet surgery restored normal detrusor voiding pressure and led to spontaneous resolution of urinary leakage without recurrence in all cases.
