The technique of orthotopic renal transplantation with urinary shunt, using the ileal conduit as an alternative in cases of pathologically nonviable lower urinary tract, is described. Various techniques for heterotopic renal transplantation using the ileal conduit have been used. We feel that orthotopic renal transplantation accompanied by the ileal conduit results in a more anatomical and physiological unit than the previously proposed alternatives.
