This paper describes our initial experience with laparoscopic ureteroneocystostomy in two patients with distal ureter lesions following gynaecological surgery (hysterectomy). Furthermore, we review the evidence on the incidence, prevention, and management of urinary tract injuries that occur during laparoscopic gynaecological surgery. METHOD: Two patients with iatrogenic lower ureteral injuries during hysterectomy leading to ureterovaginal fistula underwent laparoscopic ureteroneocystostomy with a psoas hitch. RESULTS: The procedures were successfully performed without any conversion. No intraoperative or postoperative complications were noted. Our minimally invasive approach has yielded successful results, similar to those achieved through open surgical repair. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic ureteroneocystostomy with a psoas hitch for ureterovaginal fistula secondary to hysterectomy is a safe and feasible option for patients with gynecologic distal ureteral injury, with excellent results and low morbidity.

To present our experience with laparoscopic ureteroneocystostomy with bladder flap (LUCBF) for treating benign ureteral stenosis and evaluate its feasibility and efficacy. The clinical data of 27 patients with benign ureteral stenosis who underwent LUCBF were retrospectively analyzed. After identification and excision of the ureteral stenosis segment, the healthy ureteral stump was dissected and incised longitudinally.

Factors involved in the development include, among other things, congenital anomalies, iatrogenic injuries during endoscopic as well as open or minimally invasive visceral surgical, gynecological, and urological procedures as well as prior radiation therapy. Planning treatment for ureteral strictures requires a detailed assessment of stricture and patient characteristics.

Objectives: The objective is to discover the etiopathogenesis of benign lower ureteric stricture in Eastern India and compare the outcome of open versus laparoscopic ureteroneocystostomy.
Materials And Methods: Retrospectively 52 patients who underwent laparoscopic ( = 28) or open ureteroneocystostomy ( = 24) for lower ureteral stricture between January 2018and December 2021 were included. The demography, aetiology, radiologic imaging, intraoperative & postoperative outcomes and follow-up data were collected and analysed.
