Prevalence of BK Virus in Renal Transplant at a Single Center: Experience With Our Ureteral Reimplantation Surgical Technique.

CONCLUSIONS: Our type of ureteral stenting has a low rate of BK viruria and BK viremia compared with other studies. In addition, with our technique, the ureteral stent removal procedure does not require an invasive endoscopic procedure, thereby avoiding the consequent economic and assistance inconvenience typically associated with an endoscopic procedure.
