Abstract

A patient of incomplete double ureter with ureter-to-ureter reflux was examined by electromyographic technique.Peristaltic discharges from the lower segment ureter propagated to the upper segment ureter as antiperistalsis. This phenomenon was more frequently observed throughout the recording period. Thus, the upper segment ureter was anastomosed to the lower segment pelvis end-to-side to decrease the effect of antiperistalsis on the upper segment pelvis.For the purpose of reasonable ureteropyelostomy it is advisable to make the electromyographic recording of the incomplete double ureter during operation.
