Successful management of ureteric endometriosis by laparoscopic ureterolysis – A review and report of three further cases

Conclusion Considering the risk of loss of renal function and due to the nonspecific symptoms, a prompt clinical suspicion and thorough preoperative assessment can potentially help in the diagnosis. We conclude that laparoscopic ureterolysis is a minimally invasive technique with low complication and recurrence rates. It is a suitable option as a primary approach for selected patients with ureteric endometriosis, if done in a systematic step-by-step approach.
