Laparoscopic treatment of a retrocaval ureter

T Matsuda et al. Eur Urol. 1996.

Abstract

A retrocaval ureter was treated laparoscopically with good success. The retrocaval segment of the ureter was easily separated and the ureter was reanastomosed using a laparoscopic suturing technique. Laparoscopic surgery is useful for the treatment of a retrocaval ureter with minimal postoperative pain and a short convalescence.
