Ureteroureterostomy (/ j ʊəˌr iː t ə r oʊ j ʊəˌr iː t ə ˈ r ɒ s t ə m i / "urétero-uréte-róstomy") is end-to-end connection (anastomosis) of the two portions of a transected ureter; also called ureteroureteral anastomosis and van Hook operation (after Weller van Hook, surgeon).
A ureterostomy is the creation of a stoma (a new, artificial outlet) for a ureter or kidney. [1]The procedure is performed to divert the flow of urine away from the bladder when the bladder is not functioning or has been removed.
Urostomy is most commonly performed after cystectomy, such as may be necessary in, for example, bladder cancer.Other indications include severe kidney disease, accidental damage or injury to the urinary tract, surgical complications because of non-related pelvic or abdominal surgery, congenital defects that cause urine to back up into the kidneys, or urinary incontinence.
