Surgery for vesicoureteral reflux John W Brock III and Romano T DeMarco

Multiple techniques for the open surgical repair of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) have been described since Hutch first reported the successful correction of VUR in 1952.1 Although many methods have been proposed, most of these techniques have become footnotes in the evolution of the surgical management of VUR. Today, most surgeons employ only a handful of the previously described repairs.
