[Early and delayed repair of gynecological ureteral injuries]

The report is based on a material of 45 patients with 54 ureteral damages after obstetric-gynaecological operations. In 30 cases nephrostomy was done and the operation on the ureter was delayed, while 24 ureters were operated on immediately after establishing of the diagnosis. The authors are proponents of early operations. The results of these operations are better, the patients recover earlier regaining fitness, and additional procedure, nephrostomy, is avoided.
