    Summary

    This study analyzed 108 unilateral antireflux surgeries for primary renal reflux. Contralateral renal reflux (CRR) occurred in 9.2% of cases, often resolving spontaneously, suggesting conservative management for CRR is recommended.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pediatric Surgery

    Context:

    • Unilateral renal reflux often requires surgical intervention.
    • Ureteral advancement techniques crossing the bladder midline are common surgical approaches.
    • Contralateral renal reflux (CRR) is a potential postoperative complication.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the incidence and outcomes of contralateral renal reflux (CRR) after unilateral antireflux surgery.
    • To compare the efficacy of two different ureteral advancement techniques in preventing CRR.
    • To determine the necessity of systematic bilateral antireflux surgery for unilateral reflux.

    Summary:

    • 108 unilateral antireflux surgeries for primary renal reflux were reviewed over seven years.
    • Contralateral renal reflux (CRR) developed in 9.2% of patients postoperatively.
    • The Glenn-Anderson technique showed a higher CRR incidence (13.2%) compared to the Cohen's technique (2.5%).
    • Three patients required further intervention due to urinary tract deterioration from CRR.
    • Authors recommend conservative management for CRR, not routine bilateral surgery.

    Impact:

    • Findings suggest the Cohen's technique may be more effective in preventing CRR.
    • Highlights the importance of monitoring for CRR post-unilateral antireflux surgery.
    • Supports a conservative approach to managing CRR, avoiding unnecessary bilateral procedures.
