Reasons for performing procedure
Ureteroureterostomies are often performed because of injured or scarred ureters, especially when the ureter in question is damaged in its upper third section.[2] Generally if the patient has distal uretral strictures (narrowing of the ureter),[3] a ureteroureterostomy is not recommended and a ureter reimplantation would be favorable.[4][self-published source?]
