A member asked:

I had surgery to remove 2 stones in ureter after surgery developed urinoma from ruptured ureter, stent in place for 19 days will rupture heal itself?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Injured Ureter: The ureter has an excellent blood supply thus much more often than not it completely heals. The greater concern is the development of a narrowing (stricture) . Usually a month or so after the stent is removed an imaging study should be performed.
