Summary— Forty‐three children who underwent cutaneous ureteroileostorny are described. Particular attention has been paid to long‐term follow‐up, which has produced disappointing results. Deterioration occurred in 61 % of the kidneys studied and although recurring urinary tract infections and stomal problems occurred in many patients, no single factor could be implicated as the cause of deteriorating renal function.
