[Invasive cancer of the prostate. Reconstruction of the lower urinary tract by prostatic resection and ureteral reimplantation into the bladder vault].

Some prostatic cancers (T4) spread out along the ureters to the kidneys. Patients, usually arrive with terminal renal failure and bladder retention and have often fast-advancing cancer with massive nodes invading. T.U.R., reimplantation of the ureters into the bladder dome or into a psoïc bladder and the specific treatment of the cancer, have often permitted these patients to survive for some years without any dialysis. In these cases we often find very important lower limbs oedema. With lymphatic nodes radiotherapy and subcutaneous injections of heparin, these oedema may regress completely.
