Short description of contents:
We aimed to describe the management of the intraoperative
injury of the right external iliac artery that occurred during a
robot-assisted right nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff
excision. The surgery was scheduled for suspected urothelial
carcinoma of the distal ureter in a 60-year-old woman. The
patient involved in the present research signed a dedicated
form to consent to the publication of images and/or infor-
mation about her. Past medical history included Brugada
syndrome diagnosed in 2015, and hypercholesterolemia. Past
surgical history included one cesarean section only. Family
history included ovarian cancer (sister), colorectal cancer
(mother), and kidney cancer (father).
