Ureteroureterostomy
Ureteroureterostomy (/jʊəˌriːtəroʊjʊəˌriːtəˈrɒstəmi/ "urétero-uréte-róstomy") is end-to-end connection (anastomosis) of the two portions of a transected ureter; also called ureteroureteral anastomosis and van Hook operation (after Weller van Hook, surgeon).[1]

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]
