In this article, we have reviewed the scope of surgically induced damage to the lower urinary tract. Preventative and reparative techniques have been presented. As pelvic surgeons become more confident in their efforts to safeguard the urinary tract, the chance of an unrecognized injury causing morbidity will diminish.
