Lesión iatrogénica de uréter lumbar y vasos ilíacos tras discectomía lumbar: tratamiento urológico mediante autotrasplante renal

We report a case of a patient with a secondary injury of external iliac artery and vein in the L 4-L 5 laminectomy and discectomy course. An inmediatily vein suture and ilio-iliac by-pass with Dacron was made. In the postoperatory a yatrogenic lumbar ureter section was discovered and treated with renal autotransplantation. We review the options described in the literature in the management of these complex ureteral injuries.
