title: Urinomas as a complication of iatrogenic ureteric injuries in gynecological surgery.
abstract: We examined the incidence of ureteric injuries in relation to gynecologic operations. In 5240 gynecological operations, eighteen (0.34%) cases of ureteric injuries and four cases of urinomas were found. We present the four cases of ureteric injuries that were found with postoperative development of urinomas.
