Ureteral injuries (UIs) remain a major challenge to clinicians in complex gynecological surgery. In this study, we employed three cases to demonstrate the locations of the ureter prone to injury …
Single Port (SP) Robotic Extraperitoneal approach enhances maneuverability in the narrow extraperitoneal space while preserving peritoneal integrity (1, 2). First reports show reduced postoperative pain, fewer gastrointestinal complications and shorter …
Ureteral endometriosis (UE) is a rare but potentially devastating manifestation of deep infiltrating endometriosis, often remaining asymptomatic until irreversible renal damage occurs. We present the case of a 42-year-old woman …
Background and Clinical Significance: Obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal anomaly (OHVIRA) syndrome is a rare Müllerian duct anomaly that is frequently misdiagnosed as primary dysmenorrhea, resulting in delayed intervention and …
To describe a novel laparoscopic technique, prophylactic ureteral suturing (PUS), developed to reinforce structurally weakened ureteral segments following extensive ureterolysis for deep endometriosis, to avoid segmental resection or reimplantation.
Fluorescence imaging using indocyanine green (ICG) has recently gained widespread use in gynecologic surgery and is considered a useful method for facilitation of ureteric identification and dissection during deep endometriosis …
The objective of this video is to describe a case of disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis (DPL) mimicking deeply infiltrating endometriosis and discuss the preoperative workup, intraoperative approach, and postoperative considerations. We …
Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is a severe form of endometriosis, with endometriotic implants that can invade several anatomical structures. The urinary tract is the second most common site for deep …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic, inflammatory, estrogen-dependent disease that has historically been underdiagnosed, especially in patients with unexplained infertility. On average, diagnosis is delayed by 11 years, underscoring the need …
