Abstract
SUMMARY This patient presented both anuric and uraemic, after a failed trial of forceps and subsequent Caesarian section. A period of hypotension had followed and a diagnosis of acute tubular necrosis seemed likely. Renography showed an obstructive pattern and investigation confirmed obstruction to both ureters. The patient has subsequently made a full recovery.

Renal function after complete bilateral ureteral obstruction following colporrhaphy.

TL;DR: This case emphasized that kinking alone can produce a complete obstruction which may last for several weeks and thus requires early operative interference to relieve the anuria and inserted ureteral catheters in secondary colporrhaphy or in anticipated difficult abdominal surgery is strongly advised as a preventative measure.
