A Prospective Randomized Study Comparing Shock Wave Lithotripsy and Semirigid Ureteroscopy for the Management of Proximal Ureteral Calculi
Urology, 10/12/09
Salem HK – URS with intracorporeal lithotripsy is an acceptable treatment modality for all proximal ureteral calculi, particularly stones > 1 cm. SWL should remain the first–line therapy for proximal ureteral calculi <= 1 cm because of the less invasive nature and lower anesthesia (i.v. sedation).
