Ureteral Injury During Colorectal Surgery: Two Case Reports and a Literature Review
Iatrogenic ureteral injury (IUI) is a dreaded complication of abdominopelvic surgery. Although rare, it is associated with severe consequences. This complication most commonly occurs during gynecological procedures but may also occur during colorectal surgeries. We present two cases of IUI in patien...

description | Iatrogenic ureteral injury (IUI) is a dreaded complication of abdominopelvic surgery. Although rare, it is associated with severe consequences. This complication most commonly occurs during gynecological procedures but may also occur during colorectal surgeries. We present two cases of IUI in patients in whom the ureteric stents were electively placed. The first case was a 71-year-old male with no significant medical history. The patient underwent an elective laparoscopic sigmoidectomy for complicated diverticulitis. During the procedure, a proximal IUI occurred, and was recognized and repaired. The second case occurred in a 68-year-old male with a history of multiple complicated abdominal surgeries. The patient underwent a second redo low anterior resection for a long preanastomotic stricture. The IUI occurred in the right fibrosed presacral plane, approximately 3 cm proximal to the bladder. The ureter was reimplanted to the bladder during the same procedure. We will also present a literature review of IUI, including the risk factors, intraoperative prevention, and repair options. |
