Urinary tract injury: medical negligence or unavoidable complication?

Abstract:

:The incidence of urinary tract injury is low in most gynaecological operations but, if undiagnosed, is a cause of significant postoperative morbidity for the patient and litigation for the gynaecologist. A Medline search of studies of urinary tract injury at gynaecological surgery show that only one in 10 ureteral injuries and one in three bladder injuries are detected at the time of surgery without intra-operative cystoscopy. As cystoscopy is not routinely performed by the majority of gynaecologists during surgery, even in difficult cases, failure to detect injury to the urinary tract by itself should not be seen as negligence. However, all gynaecologists performing pelvic surgery should be encouraged to become competent in cystourethroscopy and perform this intra-operatively, at least in all high-risk cases of gynaecological surgery.
