Abstract:
Ureteral injury is an uncommon complication of cesarean section. As with all iatrogenic ureteral injuries, if the problem is not recognized intraoperatively, the manifestations may be protean. The management of ureteral injury that is first recognized in the early postoperative period must be individualized. We present a case of ureteral injury during a cesarean section in which endoscopic techniques were employed successfully to establish kidney drainage and allow ureteral healing, obviating open surgical repair.
