[Transitory hydronephroses after the Marshall-Marchetti operation. A case history (author's transl)]

The authors report an unusual complication following the correction of a case of stress incontinence by vesico-urethral suspension using the Marshall-Marchetti procedure. They observe the rapid onset of an unilateral uretero-hydronephrosis which was due to oedema of the right vesico-ureteral junction and which was cured by a short treatment, with corticoids.
