Endourologic management of ureteroscopic complications

Ureteroscopic injuries can be treated with endourologic techniques avoiding the morbidity of open operation. We report two cases of ureteral injury following ureteroscopy: one with extravasation, and the other, diagnosed one month postoperatively, with fistula and retroperitoneal urinoma. Both cases were successfully treated by percutaneous approaches. Possible etiology, preventive measures, and treatments are discussed.
