[Surgical tactics in bilateral diseases of the kidneys and ureters]

A bilateral affection of kidneys and ureters necessitating surgical therapy occurs and not rarely. The routinely used surgical tactics in such cases is an intervention on both aspects by turn with an interval of 2--4 months. Based on clinical data obtained, it is concluded that such policy is not well grounded and needs a revision in favour of a one-moment intervention performed bilaterally irrespective of a character of the disease. Observations relative to patients with different bilateral affections of kidneys and ureters, who underwent a one-moment bilateral intervention with favourable issues, are analysed.
