Laparoscopic management of nonpalpable testis: new treatment strategy.

abstract：:Complications from laparoscopically placed staples are rare. We present two patients with ureteral obstruction secondary to eroded staples. Each patient had a remote history of laparoscopic abdominal or pelvic surgery and was treated with endoscopic removal and short-term ureteral stenting. The clinical presentation a...
