Abstract
The earliest reported attempts at ureterointestinal implantation were by John Simon in
18521 and Thomas Smith in 1878. A number of implantation procedures were performed
between 1880 and 1910, but most failed because of fistula formation. The first successes
were achieved in 1920, with the arrival of ureteral stents. Ureteroileal antireflux
implantations have always had more problems than ureterocolonic antireflux
implantations2 due to the structure of the submucosa of the small intestine, which is both
more dense and more vascular than that of the colon. This renders the creation of a
submucosal tunnel a more difficult procedure.
