An all-endo Approach to Complete Ureteral Duplications Complicated by Ureterocele and/or Vesicoureteral Reflux: Feasibility, Limitations, and Results

Table 2

Factors affecting the outcome of the all-endo approach and the need for secondary surgical intervention.

Outcome	No. of renal units (%)	Ureterocele position and anatomy	VUR grade in lower moiety
VUR resolved or downgraded	29/46 (63)	NS	𝑃=0.0261
Secondary VUR after UC puncture	13/33 (39)	𝑃=0.0315	NS
Required open surgery	23/56 (41)	𝑃=0.019	NS

NS: not statistically significant; UC: ureterocele; VUR: vesicoureteral reflux.
