[Anastomosis of ureter with YAG:Nd laser in the rabbit. Experimental investigations]

An attempt to repair ureter with the neodium YAG laser in rabbits has been reported. Laser designed by the Institute of Opto-electronics at the Military Technical Academy in Warsaw has been used to anastomose previously cut off ureter. The result has been favourable in 60% of cases. Stenosis making the urine outflow from the kidney difficult might be contributed to technical problems.
