  • Title: Robot-assisted laparoscopic excision and ureteroureterostomy for congenital midureteral stricture.
    Author: Thiel DD, Badger WJ, Winfield HN.
    Journal: J Endourol; 2008 Dec; 22(12):2667-9. PubMed ID: 19099515.
    Abstract:
    Congenital ureteral strictures most commonly occur at the proximal and distal segments of the ureter. Congenital midureteral stricture is a rare entity that is usually detected by prenatal ultrasonography and repaired in infants. We present the case and video of a congenital midureteral stricture in a 20-year-old woman who presented with a severe episode of pyelonephritis. The congenital midureteral stricture was successfully managed with robot-assisted laparoscopic excision and ureteroureterostomy.
