    "abstract": "We describe a novel technique of laparoscopic undiversion and reimplantation of end ureterostomy in children.\nThree children (mean age 2.1 y, two girls) underwent laparoscopic undiversion and reimplantation of unilateral end ureterostomy during early infancy for symptomatic primary obstructive megaureter. The procedure consisted of laparoscopic dismantling of stoma, mobilization and medial rerouting of ureter, and extravesical ureteric reimplantation.\nThere were no complications (mean follow-up 10 months). Follow-up investigations revealed only mild residual hydronephrosis with no ipsilateral reflux. Cosmetic results were excellent.\nOur novel technique allows laparoscopic undiversion of ureterostomy to be performed with success.",
