Efficacy of Semirigid Ureteroscopy with Pneumatic Lithotripsy for Ureteral Stone Surface Area of Greater Than 30 mm2
Journal of Endourology, 04/01/09
Ather MH et al. - Semirigid URS using pneumatic lithotripsy for treatment of stones >30mm2 is a safe and highly efficacious procedure particularly in the distal ureter. There is a significant difference in the SF and EQ between upper/middle ureteral stone and lower ureteral stone. Stone size has a direct relation with the SF and EQ. Upper ureteral stones have a longer time to SF compared to middle and lower ureteral stones.
