Abstract

Megaureters of nonfunctioning renal segments in a duplex system are commonly available for use in reconstructive procedures secondary to high- grade reflux, ectopic ureter, ectopic ureterocele, or obstructive megaureter. The use of megaureters subtending a nonfunctioning lower pole renal segment for bladder augmentation in 2 patients is reported.
