Abstract
Lower urinary tract (LUT) injuries may occur during gynecologic surgery due to the close proximity of pelvic organs and vary by procedure, surgical indication, and route. Prevention of LUT injury should be a primary goal of gynecologic surgery. LUT injuries are more common in patients with aberrant anatomy, during difficult procedures, and with surgeons with less experience. Immediate recognition and management of LUT injuries is optimal, although delayed postoperative diagnoses may be unavoidable. Surgical management is based on the size and location of injury and should be performed by an experienced surgeon with thorough knowledge of pelvic anatomy, surgical technique, and postoperative management.
