    Author: Young G, Goldberg ME, Nemer FD.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1979 Mar; 132(3):413-4. PubMed ID: 106645.
    Abstract:
    Pre- and postoperative urograms of 47 patients undergoing abdominoperineal resection were reviewed for ureteral deviation and obstruction. Postoperative medial deviation occurred in 11 patients (23.4%). Both ureters were involved in six of these patients. Ureteral deviation was identified as early as 3 days after surgery. Obstruction of the ureters occurred in four patients and was due to tumor in three of these.
