Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) represents one of the most significant risk factors for acute pyelonephritis in children. Nephropathy with renal scarring is still the most concerning issue in VUR. Surgical correction to eliminate VUR is an important part of its management and this need is increasing for duplicated collecting systems (DCS). Laparoscopy may have a place in the treatment of VUR. We report our initial experience in the treatment of refluxing DCS by laparoscopic extravesical transperitoneal approach (LETA) following Lich-Gregoir technique. The aim of this study was to describe the evolution and evaluate the results and benefits of this technique.
