With the minimal morbidity attained using laparoscopy, its application in urologic surgery has been increasing. Using laparoscopic techniques we successfully completed the transposition and re-anastomosis of a retrocaval right ureter. Operation time was 240 minutes. The patient was allowed to walk on the first post-operative day and resumed oral intake on the second day. Administration of analgesics was not required. The ureteral stent was removed on the 24th day after operation. An intravenous urogram three months after operation showed a decrease in hydronephrosis. Laparoscopic correction of retrocaval ureter by extraperitoneal approach is a safe, feasible technique, avoiding a large surgical wound with the definite advantage of minimal disfigurement. Operating time is considerably shorter compared to the peritoneal approach as described by Baba (240’ vs 560’).

A retrospective analysis of all patients with blunt abdominal trauma associated with haematuria admitted to one hospital (Royal United, Bath) in a 10-year period was conducted to establish the contribution of the intravenous urogram (IVU) in their management. Eighty-one case records were analysed. Of 35 IVUs performed in patients with microscopic (reagentstrip positive) haematuria, only one was abnormal. In contrast, 27 IVUs performed in patients with macroscopic (naked eye) haematuria revealed 17 major injuries and 5 previously unrecognized congenital abnormalities. It is concluded that an IVU is an unnecessary and non-contributory investigation in patients with microscopic haematuria and guidelines are suggested for the role of IVU in patients with blunt abdominal trauma associated with haematuria.
