Abstract
Iatrogenic ureteral injuries can occur during any surgery but are more likely to occur during urologic and gynecologic procedures. The middle and distal ureter are especially at risk of injury during these surgeries. The objective of this video was to demonstrate how to repair middle to distal ureteral injuries that may occur during urologic and gynecologic surgeries with the following techniques: direct ureteroureterostomy, ureteroneocystostomy, vesico-psoas hitch, and Boari-Ockerblad bladder flap. A female cadaver was used to show how to repair injuries to the middle and distal ureter. Each repair technique was surgically demonstrated. Middle to distal ureteral injuries occurring during urologic and gynecologic surgeries can be repaired by the techniques demonstrated in this video.
