Abstract

Since the last decade, iatrogenic injuries of ureter are increasingly common. We describe a case of 36-year-old young female, who underwent emergency cesarean section, presented to us after 3 weeks, with clear vaginal discharge. After evaluated with clinical examination and radiological investigations, she was found to have left uretero-uterine fistula and was successfully treated with robotic-assisted left uretero-uterine fistula repair by Lich-Gregoir technique.
