FIG. 15.

Opening the bladder usually requires the simultaneous insertion of a ureteral stent. This is achieved via cystoscopy (A and B). When the trigone of the bladder and the intramural pathway of the ureter are distant to the laceration, the latter can be closed securely by laparoscopy (C and D). The hole is closed by making an interior suture line with Vicryl 3.0, using a continuous suture, and an interrupted suture line above with Vicryl 2.0 including the muscle and the peritoneum.
