Abstract

Background: Retroperitoneoscopic surgery was performed on a 41-year-old man with a retrocaval ureter.

Methods: The retrocaval segment of the ureter was retroperitoneoscopically separated and the ureter was reanastomosed using an automatic suture device.

Results/discussion: He returned to normal activities four days postoperatively. Postoperative excretory urography showed improvement of hydronephrosis and no residual stenosis.
