Abstract
Ureteric reimplantation in open surgery can be done extravesically or transvesically. Laparoscopic ureteric reimplantation by transvesical approach can be challenging because of the limited space and the risk of ports slipping out. It also involves considerable expertise in suturing. In extravesical reimplantation, suturing the bladder mucosa to the ureter and creating a submucosal tunnel, need dexterity.
