Transperitoneal ureterolithotomy.

T K Bose, R E Shaw

British Journal of Urology

|December 1, 1975

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

The transperitoneal approach for pelvic ureter stones offers benefits but requires careful technique. Ensuring extraperitoneal drainage after peritoneal closure is crucial for safety and preventing contamination.

Area of Science:

Urology
Surgical Techniques

Background:

Ureterolithotomy, the surgical removal of ureteral stones, can be performed via transperitoneal or extraperitoneal approaches.
The transperitoneal approach to the pelvic ureter is often preferred due to potential advantages over the extraperitoneal method.

Observation:

This study focuses on the safety considerations of the transperitoneal approach for pelvic ureter stone removal.
Key to the safety of this technique is the prevention of contamination within the peritoneal cavity.

Findings:

The transperitoneal approach is advantageous for ureterolithotomy.
However, its safety is contingent upon meticulous surgical technique, specifically avoiding peritoneal cavity contamination.
Establishing extraperitoneal drainage after closing the peritoneal incision over the ureter is essential.

Implications:

Implementing secure closure and drainage techniques can enhance the safety profile of transperitoneal ureterolithotomy.
This approach, when performed with appropriate precautions, offers a viable and potentially superior option for managing pelvic ureteral stones.
