This is n wdl illustrated paper demonstrating of nreterocele and describing a the anatom) method of surgical correction which consists of excising the ureterocele tissue, thereby relieving obstruction, but also repairing the ureterovesical junction in such R way that reflux does not exist. Reflus can be expected uniformly if a ureterocele is simply incised or unroofed. Six ureteroceles in 4 patients. 3 of them children, have been operated upon successfully.-11’. H. Hendrcn.

The authors have studied over 600 children thought to have lower urinary tract obstructive problems, and from this group 69 cases who had demonstrated reflns at kome point in their clinical course \\.ere revie\vrd to see if reflux coulcl be related to bladder dune. Th(ny conclucled that hlnclder volnme, or capacity \q.ith relation to body .surfnce area, does not have value in predicting the ldtimate course of vesicoureterd reflus.-W. H. Ilcntlren.
