    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Regenerative Medicine
    • Surgical Innovation

    Context:

    • Ureteral defects pose significant challenges in reconstructive surgery.
    • Current methods for ureter replacement have limitations, including variable outcomes and poor long-term results.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of various materials and techniques for ureter replacement.
    • To identify optimal solutions for reconstructing larger ureteral defects.

    Summary:

    • Review of literature and clinical experience on ureter replacement using isolated bowel segments, alloplastic prostheses, and autoplastic/xenoplastic transplants.
    • Appendix vermiformis interposition shows the best results in single cases for large ureteral defects.
    • Bowel segment interposition yields variable outcomes, while alloplastic prostheses and free autologous transplants lack satisfying long-term results.
