74 consecutive human kidney transplants are reported. In 72 cases uretero-cysto-neostomies with an antireflux procedure were performed in a typical way. The technique, a modification of Leadbetter's uretero-sigmoido-neostomy, has been used by the author for years. The only urological complications were one proximal and one distal ureteral fistula. In 25% out of 20 reexamined patients a vesico-ureteral reflux was demonstrated by micturition cysto-urethrography. There was no correlation between urinary tract infections (25%) and vesico-ureteral reflux. The results are compared with the data given in literature.
