Article Synopsis
- Urinary system injuries can occur during gynecological and obstetrical surgeries, leading to serious complications, and this study reviews such injuries from four centers between January 2018 and October 2023.
- A total of 328 patients were examined, revealing that 69.2% suffered from iatrogenic bladder injuries and 30.8% from iatrogenic ureteral injuries, primarily diagnosed during surgery.
- The findings highlight that bladder injuries were more common than ureter injuries, especially during cesarean sections, emphasizing the need for early detection and intervention to avoid long-term complications.
