title: [Laparoscopic management of a ureteral lesions in Schauta-Stoeckel radical vaginal hysterectomy].
abstract: We report on the laparoscopic repair of an ureteral injury during radical vaginal hysterectomy according to Schauta-Stoeckel combined with laparoscopic paraaortic and pelvic lymphadenectomy. A 0.5 cm long oval incision of the left ureter 4 cm from the bladder was noticed during laparoscopic inspection at the final stage of the operation. The injury was repaired through a transvesical ureteral stent under laparoscopic guidance with laparoscopic intracorporeal suturing. On postoperative day 10 the ureteral stent was removed. An intravenous urogram taken 4 weeks after the operation showed normal conditions. Therefore primary laparoscopic repair of an ureteral injury is possible and effective.
