Sharmila Dissanaike Ron Barbosa MD FACS Michael J Schwabe, MD, MS Yep. If you go open with correct landmarks I think you've got to try pretty hard to go sub-diaphragmatic.

Sharmila Dissanaike Mucking around in the pelvis to get a ureter out is far more trouble than it’s worth. I think the incidence rate of upper tract urothelial Ca is <2% in pts who already have bladder Ca so would be waaaay lower in gen pop. Get kidney out and move on.

Hasan Alam always emphasizes the importance of being willing to reconsider our patient care decisions and change paths. Only way to provide the best care.
Also I have Dr Shapiro in my ear with “every day is a school day!”

Sharmila Dissanaike Leah Tatebe Kent DeLay Definitely no reason to remove the ureter in a trauma setting. And yes, even when we take out a kidney for renal cell carcinoma we do not perform ureterectomy

Sharmila Dissanaike Leah Tatebe Ashley Winter MD || Urologist Yep.. even if the nephrectomy is done for a urothelial carcinoma in the kidney most will not have a recurrence in the stump

No good evidence for wasting time on ureterectomy in trauma nephrectomy pt (who by definition is critically ill, likely coagulopathic so unlike elective case, extra time =harm)
This brief report spells it out nicely (& no new evidence since pub in 2013) journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…
