Abstrakt: We reviewed retrospectively 100 consecutive ureterolithotomies in an attempt to determine if the choice of the ureterotomy closure significantly altered the postoperative course and morbidity rate. No dramatic difference was found when comparing ureterotomies left open, those closed loosely with interrupted sutures and those closed with continuous sutures. Parameters studied were the duration of postoperative urinary drainage, hospital stay and fever. Postoperative radiographic findings among the 3 groups are discussed.
