What is In an immediate postoperative hysterectomy, a patient develops leakage of urine. What is the most likely cause? and explain in detail?
Immediate postoperative leakage of urine develops due to drainage of the peritoneal collection of urine. Both bladder and ureteral defects can cause leakage of urine into the peritoneal cavity. Bladder injury is more common than ureteral injury with the incidence of 1%. The other presentation may be abdominal pain and ascites.
