title: [Iatrogenic lesions of the ureter in women].
abstract: The changing etiology of ureteral lesions is associated with the expanding spectrum of ureteroscopic, gynaecological, coloproctological and vascular operations. During 1989-1995 the authors treated 60 women with a ureteral lesion, mostly in conjunction with gynaecological operations (37 patients). The assessment of the diagnosis was sometimes delayed. The most frequent initial treatment was the establishment of percutaneous puncture nephrostomy (in 47 instances before delayed reconstruction). The authors discuss the time interval between the development of the ureteral lesion and its reconstruction. The most frequent treatment was ureterorhaphy, ureterocystoneoanastomosis or Boari's flap.
