[Urologic lesions in gynecologic and uro-gynecologic surgery. Two years of hospital experience].
We are reporting the most frequent urologic injuries of the gynecologic and urogynecologic surgeries at the National Institute of Perinatology in Mexico City. From the period of March 1993 to February 1995. There were performed 3,452 surgeries. Of this, 2,971 were gynecologic and 481 urogynecologic cases. We found 20 patients with injury to the inferior urinary tract. The most frequent type of injury found was by puncture and blunt, in eight cases respectively and cutting in four. The transoperatory diagnostic of injury was performed in 17 patients and in three few days after. The late complications of the injury was urethral vaginal fistula in two, one vesicovaginal communication and one ureterovaginal, one stone formation and one transurethral catheter retention. The more affected organ was the bladder in 18 cases, urether and urethra. The injury to the inferior urinary tract represents 4.15% of the urogynecologic surgical complications, and 0.67% of the gynecological ones. The main aspect in the prognosis of the injury to the inferior urinary tract, is the early diagnostic during the surgical procedures.
