Ureteral injury or ligation is rare than other urinary tract organs, and usually occur after gyne-cological and urological surgery. Ureteral injuries are usually unilateral. Sometimes unilateral urete-ral ligation with suture or clip can leads to forma-tion of ureteral stones after a long time to surgery. If the ureteral ligation is diagnosed early, it can be treated early and can not caused severe complica-tions such as renal loss. This case report was aimed to present a female case who had partial ureteral ligation after a gynecological surgery and develo-ping a ureteral stones after two years from surgery.  

Key Words:   partial ligation of ureter, distal ureter stone
