Abstract

Boari flap is an useful option for the management of long lower ureteric strictures [1–4, 6, 7]. Success of the procedure depends on the construction of a well vascularised bladder flap with a length to width ratio [5] of 4:3. All the steps of open surgery can be replicated by laparoscopy. Preliminary IVU or CT urogaram and cystoscopy are essential to rule out any intravesical pathology.
