    Abstract:
    Ureteral iatrogenic lesions occur with variable frequency in the different types of surgery, mainly in uncomplicated abdominal hysterectomy. This paper contributes 29 patients (2 male and 27 female) with several types of lesions, secondary to gynaecological, intestinal and vascular surgery. The series produced 16 cases of clamping, 6 ureterovaginal fistulae, 6 ureteral sections (5 total and 1 partial) and 1 ureterouterine fistula. The terminal ureter was the most frequently damaged. The diagnostic and therapeutical methods used in this type of lesions are analyzed.
