The use of vermiform appendix as a tube to replace right ureteral segment has been reported, rarely in child. Herein is reported a case of right ischemic ureteral stenosis following a reimplantation of the ureter for high grade reflux secondary to posterior urethral valves with only one functioning kidney. A long ureteral defect was bridged successfully by appendix interposition and then reimplanted in the bladder at four years of age. The interest of ureteroappendiculoplasty provides temporary solution to repair long ureteral defect, in spite of uncertain future, especially in childhood.
