A Case of Iatrogenic Ureter Injury: Recent Diagnostic and Treatment Methods
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF UROLOGICAL SURGERY - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
The ureters are rarely exposed to trauma. Ureteral injuries are generally in the form of iatrogenic, blunt injuries, and rarely penetrating injuries. Iatrogenic injuries often occur during surgical procedures. They do not present with specific findings and symptoms, therefore, they have late-onset symptoms. Imaging modalities of choice are usually intravenous pyelography and computed tomography. Treatment is tailored to the location of the trauma.
