I had a laproscopic hysterectomy, and they cut my ureter, and went undiagnosed for 10 days, I was septic and had paratenitis. Has this happed to anyone and were there any lasting complication due to the urine in the body cavity, and repair of the cut ureter? I have had the tubes and stents removed, it has been 2 months and am still having pain when urinating and have back pain (I had a nephrostomy, a tube coming out of the kidney w/a bag) any info will hepl
thanks

I had a complete hysterectomy on 7/2005. I became very ill. I remained under doctor care ro 17 weeks and he never diagnosed what was wrong with me. By the time another doctor did conclude that my ureter had been cut my kidney had quit functioning and had to be removed.
