incidence• 75 % of the ureteric injuries occur during
gynaecological surgeries• Incidence is .3 to .4 %• Most common procedure :total abdominal
hysterectomy(.5 to 1%)• Vaginal hysterectomy(.1%)• Gynae-oncosurgery(30%)

ligament• Dorsal to infundibulopelvic ligament near or at
the pelvic brim• Cardinal ligament• Tunnel of Wertheim• Intramural portion of the ureter

Preventive strategies
• General preventive strategies1.Preoperative2.Intraoperative
• Specific preventive strategies
![Page 22: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
General preventive strategies
• Preoperative measures1.Intravenous urogram2.Ultrasound scanIdentify ureteric dilatation and disclose anatomic
variations3.Preop stenting in case of anatomic distortion
![Page 23: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Intraoperative measures1.Appropriate operative approach2.Adequate exposure3.Avoid blind clamping of blood vessals4.Mobilise bladder away from the operative site5.Stay outside the vascular sheath6.Zone of thermal injury7.Dissection should preferably be done under direct
visualisation
![Page 24: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• surgeon is to constantly and equivocally know where the ureter is all times
![Page 25: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Specific preventive measures
• Laparoscopy associated injuries .3 to .4 % of all the cases More likely result of thermal injury More likely to be diagonosed 2 to 5 days after the
surgery Most commonly during laparoscopic hysterectomy ---when uterine vessals are stapled or electrocoagulated---infundibulopelvic ligament is transected Extreme caution when using cautery or laser near or
over the ureter
![Page 30: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Complex adnexectomy Between pelvic brim to tunnel of werthiem Ureter is commonly injured Injuries can be avoided using retroperitoneum
approach…..advantages:1.Access the pelvic vessals for haemostasis2.Adhesion and pathology free space to operate If an adnexal mass is adherant to the medial half of the broad
ligament or pelvic peritoneum overlying the ureter ,the ureter can be safely dissected laterally from the peritoneum
![Page 31: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Abdominal hysterectomy From where ureter enters tunnel under uterine artery ,lateral to the
uterosacral ligaments,until ureter terminates in the bladder High risk of injury-LUS fibroid or cervical fibroid,protruding into broad ligament-bleeding from pedicals ,esp at the vaginal corners Myomectomy of a broad ligament fibroid should be preferred by incision
adjacent to the ureter and cervix,staying within the myometrial capsule Bleeding from pedicles or vaginal angle should be controlled by a
“superficial”3-0 sutures Intrafascial hysterectomy,by creating a plane within the myometrium of LUS
and cervix after ligating uterine artery vessels Fearful of injury:-21 gauge butterfly needle technique.

• Caesarean hysterectomySupracervical hysterectomyHysterotomy incision can be extended
caudally towards the cervix-allow tactile as well as visual guidance
![Page 33: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• Vaginal hysterectomyUncommon because traction on the cervix
pulls the uterus farther from the ureterCuldoplasty places the ureter at riskManeuvres:-1.Palpatory ureteral identification2.Placinng an allis clamp on the vaginal cuff in
the area of uterosacral ligament
![Page 34: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Bladder neck suspensionDuring retropubic repairHow can injury occur/-vigorous dissection of space of retzius and periurethral
tissues-high elevation of burch colposuspension suture-paravaginal defect repair in combination with burch
procedure-excessive lateral mobilisation of the bladder brings ureter
into thhhe operative field
![Page 35: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
• Pelvic organ prolapserelatively commondue to :1. Direct ligation2. Kinking as redundant tissues are plicated Cystoscopy with iv indigo carmine can be
routinely performed.

• Radical pelvic surgery Intentional ureteral surgery:1.MD Anderson type IV radical hysterectomy2. Total or anterior pelvic exenteration3.Resection of a fixed pelvic sidewall mass Accidental:1.MD Andersons type 3 radical hysterectomy2.Radical vaginal trachelectomyfor women with FIGO stage 1A1 to
1B1 cervical cancer 30 %risk of ureteral dysfunction following therapuetic radiation
therapy.

Aim of management
• Preservation of renal function• Anatomical continuity• Decision depends upon:-1.Time of detection2.Extent of injury3.Site of injury4.General condition of the patient
![Page 45: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Conservative?
• Obstruction without intraperitoneal or retroperitoneal leakage
• No major degree of obstruction• Obstruction is not the result of a permanent
agent• Small ureteral leak in the setting of prior pelvic
radiation• For patient waiting for definite repair
![Page 46: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
When to operate?
• If diagonosed immediate post op:-reoperation within 24 to 48 hrs
• If diagonosed later:-delayed repair
![Page 47: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
General guidelines for the Mx of ureteral injuries identified at the time of surgery
• Ureteral ligation:-Deligation,assessment of the viability,stent placement• Partial transection:-Primary repair over a ureteric stent• Total transection:- Uncomplicated upper third and middle third:-Ureteroureterostomy over ureteral stent Complicated upper third and middle third:-Ureteroileal interposition Lower third:-Ureteroneocystostomy with psoas hitch over ureteral stent• Thermal injury:-Resection with Mx as per a transection
![Page 48: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
![Page 49: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Ureteral ligation Angulation or kinking is much more common if sutures are within the
paraurethral tissues or partially placed through the ureter First management approach:-PCN Contrast is injected to see if even a small trickle of dyr gets past the
obstruction;if yes,a thin guidewire is passed down th ureter past the obstruction;if successful,larger catheters are passed over it;finally a double J stent left in place for 6 to 8 weeks till the sutures causing obstruction have dissolved
If obstruction is too tight to be stented or ureter is partially or completely ligated:-surgical ureterolysis
If the concerned segment is viable:stent(ureterostomy,cystoscopy,cystostomy)
if dead:-resect
![Page 50: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Partial transection
Repair is easiest and fastest(ureterotomy has already occurred)
A stent is placed up and down through the ureterotomy
A small hole:-stent is not necessaryExcessive suture placement is avoidedHealing is usually rapid and completeA closed suction drain is placed at the base of
the repair
![Page 51: URETERIC INJURY IN OBGY](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070313/554b39d2b4c905cd2c8b4693/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

Note……..
Be sure that ureteroureterostomy is completely tension free
During spatulation be sure that vessals running in the ureteral sheath are not transected
Spatulation if done on opposing sides ,ensures a complete water tight seal
