Evaluation and Management of Common Intraoperative and Postoperative Complications in Gynecologic Endoscopy
2022, Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :The bladder also should be adequately dissected away from the upper vagina to allow appropriate closure without injury. Placement of preoperative ureteral stents may be useful to identify the ureters in selected cases, but data do not show a consistent advantage to this strategy45–47 (see Table 1). Identification of many ureteral injuries can be accomplished by intravenous (IV) instillation of indigo carmine or preoperative oral phenazopyridine.39
Evaluation of Strategies to Prevent Urinary Tract Injury in Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery: A Systematic Review
2021, Journal of Minimally Invasive GynecologyCitation Excerpt :The fair-quality retrospective study groups were recruited from different time frames, and no power analysis was described [20]. The 3 randomized controlled trials, 1 prospective cohort study, and 2 retrospective cohort studies evaluating the use of UCs included a total of 5611 women [15–20] (Table 2). Zhang et al [17] randomized 60 women undergoing either total LH or laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) with pelvic lymphadenectomy (PL) to intraoperative UC placement before the start of the hysterectomy vs no UC placement.
