Summary
Tuberculosis can cause severe ureteral strictures. An extended Boari flap successfully reconstructed the upper ureter in a patient with unilateral pan-ureteral stricture, offering a viable surgical option.
Area of Science:
- Urology
- Surgical Reconstruction
- Infectious Disease
Background:
- Pan-ureteral strictures, often caused by tuberculosis, pose significant reconstructive challenges.
- Salvaging renal units with severe ureteral damage requires innovative surgical approaches.
