Introduction. Currently, ureteroscopy has become the method of choice for the treatment of patients with ureter stone location in lower third and middle third. Regardless of the fact that ureteroscopy is an endoscopic, minimally invasive intervention, it is associated with intraoperative complications. Purpose. The main objective of this literature review is to objectify the existing scales of ureter injury, demonstrate evolutionary changes from simple to more detailed, evaluate their advantages and disadvantages, and select the optimal and reproducible tool for assessing postureteroscopic complications. Materials and methods. In this literature review, we used research materials on existing scales of ureter injury published in the databases PubMed, the scientific electronic library of Russia (eLibrary), Scopus, EMBASE, websites of professional associations. Such keywords were used for searching: «postureteroscopic complications», «intraoperative complications of ureteroscopy», «ureteral injuries». This review focuses on the currently existing scales that assess ureteral injury, which can be universal and used in everyday practice. After a detailed check of the reliability of sources, the impact factors of journals and the sequence of presentation of the material, 28 sources were selected directly for citation. Results. According to literature review, historical and present-day knowledge of using postureteroscopic lesion scales in various surgical centers are presented here. Most of scales are focus on disruption of anatomical continuity of the ureter or on complications that develop during the implementation of surgical treatment, which are not specific for this procedure. However, the most detailed description of postureteroscopic complications makes it possible to distinguish between «complicated» and «uncomplicated» ureteroscopy. Conclusion. Thus, PULS scoring system is a standardized and easily reproducible tool in the evaluation of postureteroscopic complications. The emergence of new scales only emphasizes the importance and need for additional prospective and multicenter studies.

Peyronie's disease (PD) is an acquired disease, which is based on a violation of the wound healing process, which results in the formation of fibrous plaques in the tunica albuginea of the cavernous bodies. The prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) among patients with PD ranges from 22% to 54%, according to various studies. Surgical treatment remains the "gold standard" for correcting penile curvature in PD. It is important to note that the existing methods of PD surgery (techniques with shortening or lengthening of the tunica albuginea) carry the risks of developing ED or aggravating its severity. At the same time, the absence of adequate sexual rehabilitation following PD surgery is associated with a significant deterioration in functional outcomes. In view of the above, the article is aimed to systematise information on penile rehabilitation methods in patients following PD surgery, which showed that the problem remains relevant to the present day. Most existing penile rehabilitation methods are currently not sufficiently investigated, and it is therefore impossible to give clear recommendations on the use of any method. The small number of well-designed and randomised studies on this problem is noteworthy, most likely due to the relative rarity of the disease.
