PFD Week 2016-Ureteroureterostomy

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video shows a vaginal procedure for prolapse, specifically a bilateral salpinguiferectomy utilizing a stapling device. The right ureter obstruction is confirmed and a double J stent is placed. The ureter is mobilized and assessed for mobility. Sutures are placed at the spatulations on each end of the ureter and tied to re-approximate the edges. Full thickness bites are taken to ensure proper re-approximation. The anastomosis is examined and hemostasis is verified before the stay sutures are cut. The video is credited to Otto Bock (www.ottobock.com).
