Abstract
The authors report the late results of reconstructive surgery on sterosis of the pelvo-ureteral junctions in children. 68 patients had been operated during 1965–1970. The results on clinical grounds were good: the infections and pain disappeared and the renal function was normal; however, the operation had no noticeable effect on the hydronephrosis.
