Acute management of complete bilateral ureteral transections aligned via stent through antegrade and retrograde approach.

To manage bilateral complete distal ureteral transections (CDUT) via stent placement achieved through a combination of antegrade and retrograde approaches. An antegrade wire was advanced through the nephrostomy tube. Flexible ureteroscopy was utilized via retrograde approach to identify the guidewire in the pelvis. The guidewire was grasped and withdrawn out the urethra, and bilateral stents were placed over guidewire. Patient continues to remain asymptomatic one year later, with symmetrical renal function and no evidence of obstruction. We demonstrate that a CDUT can be successfully realigned with a combined endourological approach, thereby avoiding open/laparoscopic ureteral repair.
