Different reconstructive operations were performed in 20 patients for intraoperative traumas of the urinary tract. 4 patients had injured ureter and urinary bladder. The damage was done in the course of obstetric operations (cesarean section, uterine extirpation). In 12 cases the ureter was injured in uterine extirpation for cancer (n = 4), myoma (n = 4), prolapse of the uterus, (n = 1), extirpation of uterine cervix stump (n = 1), ureteral electrocoagulation (n = 1) and adnexectomy (n = 1). In 4 cases ligation of the ureter complicated surgical interventions for cancer of the sigmoid colon (n = 1) and rectum (n = 1), diverticulosis of the colon (n = 1) and portal cirrhosis of the liver with evident cirrhosis (n = 1). Surgical policy in the treatment of intraoperative urinary tract injuries was organ-saving. Only in 3 patients with severe acute pyelonephritis surgery was two-staged with prior nephrostomy. In the rest cases primary reconstructive operations were made. Two patients with bilateral injury of the ureters after uterine extirpation have undergone transabdominal bilateral reimplantation of the ureters by Boari in Gregoir's modification. Reconstruction of pelvic ureter was often made by using a urinary bladder graft (Boari's technique). In 1 female patient with extensive vesicovaginal fistula resultant in detruzor corrugation sigmocystoplasty was made with a good result. Serious complications after the reconstruction were absent. Urinary fistulas formed in 4 cases. In 3 of them they closed without surgical intervention. In 1 patient, to close urinary fistula complicating ureterocystoanastomosis Boari's operation was conducted with a favourable outcome. Reconstructive operations saved the kidney function.
