Iatrogenic Obliteration of Ureter with Spontaneous Recanalization

الملخص EN

We report an unusual case of spontaneous and complete healing of a severe iatrogenic midureteral injury.

Following percutaneous nephrostomy and 3 months on our surgical waiting list, the injured ureter underwent complete spontaneous recanalization.

The patient is clinically well with no evidence of recurrent obstruction after 2 years of followup.

To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of spontaneous recanalization of an iatrogenically induced complete ureteral obliteration.
