This case study details using the appendix for ureteral substitution, a rare surgical technique. The patient recovered well, showing normal kidney function after two years.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Limited literature exists on using the appendix for ureteral substitution.
  • Ureteral defects pose significant reconstructive challenges.

Observation:

  • A 10 cm defect in the right ureter was identified.
  • The ureteral defect resulted from an adnexal mass entrapment.

Findings:

  • Successful ureteral repair was achieved using appendiceal interposition.
  • The patient exhibited normal excretory system function at two-year follow-up.

Implications:

  • Appendiceal interposition offers a simple and feasible option for ureteral repair.
  • The indications for this technique are more restricted compared to traditional methods.
