The Journal of Urology, 06/15/09
Eisner BH et al. - Proximal ureteral stones were larger in axial and coronal diameter than distal ureteral stones. At emergency department presentation for colic most stones were at the ureterovesical junction and in the proximal ureter between the ureteropelvic junction and the iliac vessels. A few stones were at the ureteropelvic junction and only 1 lodged at the level where the ureter crosses anterior to the iliac vessels, despite the literature stating that these locations are 2 of the 3 most likely places for stones to become lodged.
