    The Gibson incision is used to access the lower and distal parts of the ureter. It involves making a 1 inch incision medial to the ASIS running 1 inch above the inguinal ligament to the pubic symphysis. The Gibson incision provides ample exposure for procedures involving the mid and lower ureter such as ureteral stricture repair, ureteroureterostomy, and transureteroureterostomy.
