summary

Endoscopic treatment of vesicoureteral reflux includes transurethral injection of teflon paste or collagen gel under the submucosal part of the ureter for stren-gthening its support. This method was used in 75 children. Teflon paste was in­jected under 94 ureters with reflux, collagen gel (Zyplast Implant) under 17 ure­ters. The effectiveness of teflon paste injections assessed immediately after the procedure was 91.5%, that of collagen gel was 82.4°/o. Endoscopic treatment of reflux may be a useful alternative of surgical treatment, but late results are not known and thus the ultimate assessment of the usefulness of this method is to be expected in future.
