Of our 23 patients who underwent transureteroureterostomy 4 sustained injury to the recipient ureter. This complication has been feared but seldom reported. The complications are discussed and factors in technique possibly related to the failures are considered. Despite our experience we continue to regard the operation as an excellent means of urinary diversion for patients with unilateral lower ureteral lesions.
