Delayed proximal ureteric stricture formation after complex partial nephrectomy.


Abstract

•  US formation is an uncommon and under-reported event after complex NSS. •  Risk factors appear to include tumour complexity, imperative indications, mid- or lower pole location, postoperative urinary leak and haemorrhage. •  Although uncommon, postoperative US can occur after NSS for complex renal masses, necessitating patient counselling and diligent postoperative surveillance.
