Abstract
The development of endoscopic methods and their widespread use in the treatment of urolithiasis increases the risk of ureteric trauma and subsequent ureteral stenosis, which leads to resection or other performance on the ureter. Open surgery with different types of reconstruction (most often resections or re - implantations) are standardized with relatively satisfactory results.
Similar techniques are also used for other pathologies, especially for low risk urothelial carcinoma or ureteral endometriosis. The disadvantage of open surgery is relatively extensive intervention in the integrity of the abdominal wall.
The disadvantage can be eliminated by miniinvasive laparoscopic / robotic approach. The video presents one case of using laparoskopy for resection of the ureter.
