AI Article Synopsis
- - Ureteral injury can happen during gynecologic surgeries and may lead to long-term health issues.
- - Traditionally, significant ureteral injuries are treated with a transabdominal re-implantation, but this case reports on a new method using a transvaginal approach.
- - In this case, a ureter was transected during pelvic organ prolapse surgery, but the transvaginal repair (ureteroneocystostomy) was successful with no complications in the following 6 months.
Article Abstract
Ureteral injury is a known complication of gynecologic surgery with potential long-term sequelae. Traditional management of significant ureteral injury recognized at the time of transvaginal pelvic organ prolapse repair is a transabdominal re-implantation procedure using a transabdominal open or laparoscopic approach. We present a case describing a transvaginal approach for ureteroneocystostomy. During a transvaginal pelvic organ prolapse repair, a ureteral transection was noted. A transvaginal ureteroneocystostomy was performed. There was primary healing of the ureteroneocystostomy without sequelae during a 6-month follow-up period.
