Barbic M, et al. - Researchers here analyzed data, regarding the ureteral injuries during different types of hysterecomy, for the last seven years, assuming that the introduction of new minimally invasive surgical techniques and instruments might have affected the incidence of ureteral injury. They noted that the incidence of these injuries was low. Majority of the injuries were indirect. These injuries were resulted from a micro-trauma and had developed due to the delayed necrosis of the ureteral wall. No substantial increase in the incidence of ureteral injury was observed with laparoscopic approach to radical and simple hysterectomy.
