The bladder-flap ureteral augmentation: An original solution in case of complex distal stricture

An original surgical solution for complex stenosis of the distal ureter is presented. A young, single-kidney male patient developed a stricture of the pelvic ureter after ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy. Surgical repair was planned after the failure of conservative management. The ureter was sect...

A young, single-kidney male patient developed a stricture of the pelvic ureter after ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy. Surgical repair was planned after the failure of conservative management. The ureter was sectioned prevesically and spatulated; a bladder flap with the same dimensions of the ureteral plate was taken from the anterior wall, and used to augment the ureter; finally an omental flap was wrapped around the reconstructed tract. Further radiological and ureteroscopic controls showed a largely patent reconstructed ureter, and follow up proved a regularly maintained kidney function.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214442021000760Bladder-flapUreteral augmentationInnovative surgical techniqueUreteral stricture management
