    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Endoscopic transvesical ureterotomy effectively treated lower ureteral strictures in two patients. This minimally invasive approach relieved obstruction, demonstrating acceptable urinary tract function post-procedure.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Minimally Invasive Surgery

    Background:

    • Lower ureteral strictures can cause significant urinary obstruction.
    • Traditional surgical interventions may carry higher risks and longer recovery times.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of lower ureteral stricture were treated using endoscopic transvesical ureterotomy.
    • The procedure involved ureteral catheterization, dilation, and a precise incision using cutting diathermy and a Colling's knife.

    Findings:

    • Complete relief of ureteral obstruction was achieved in both patients.
    • While vesicoureteral reflux was noted during voiding, excretory urography at 12 months showed acceptable urinary tract anatomy.

    Implications:

    • Endoscopic transvesical ureterotomy presents a viable minimally invasive option for lower ureteral strictures.

  • Further research could explore long-term outcomes and management of post-operative vesicoureteral reflux.
