[Lesions of the ureter in radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer].
Eight ureter lesions of the ureter occurred among 100 consecutive patients undergoing radical hysterectomy for cancer of the uterine cervix. The management of this problem is discussed, and treatment guidelines for the most commonly seen lesions are proposed. It is concluded that a more liberal use of ureteric stents or catheters should be considered so as to reduce the number of ureteric lesions occurring in connection with radical hysterectomy. Urological assistance should be sought for urological lesions recognized during or after such operations.
