[Anatomico-clinical basis for transvaginal ureterolithotomy]

D W Kan, W M Margolin

    Zeitschrift Fur Urologie Und Nephrologie
    |May 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Transvaginal ureterolithotomy is a safe surgical approach for kidney stones, with anatomical studies showing minimal risk to surrounding organs. This minimally invasive procedure yields satisfactory outcomes for patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Anatomy

    Context:

    • Transvaginal ureterolithotomy is a surgical technique for treating ureteral stones.
    • Anatomical considerations are crucial for surgical safety and efficacy.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transvaginal ureterolithotomy.
    • To assess the anatomical risks associated with the transvaginal approach to the ureters.

    Summary:

    • Transvaginal ureterolithotomy was performed on 24 patients, with anatomical studies on 50 deceased women indicating a low risk of injury to the uterus and uterine artery.
    • In 16 patients, the ureter was not exposed, with the procedure performed by opening the lumen above the stone.
    • The postoperative course was generally uncomplicated, with satisfactory immediate and long-term results.

    Impact:

    • Demonstrates the anatomical safety of transvaginal ureterolithotomy, reducing concerns about iatrogenic injury.
    • Highlights a modified surgical technique (without ureteral exposure) that may simplify the procedure.
    • Provides evidence of satisfactory clinical outcomes, supporting the use of this approach for ureteral stones.
