Gross calcification on distal end of ureteral stent.
OBJECTIVE The commonest indications for ureteral stent placement are: obstructive nephrolithiasis, renoureteral surgery, urologic oncology, endourology and extrinsic ureteral compression. METHODS We report the case of a 77-year-old male patient with a DJ ureteral catheter placed for an 8-month period and history of nephrolithiasis; the stent showed a 60 mm x 30 mm calcification on its distal ...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Ureteral Reimplant for Distal Ureteral Strictures
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The incidence of ureteral injuries is on the rise. Endoscopic treatment of long distal ureteral strictures is associated with poor success rates, and open ureteral reimplantation is a potentially morbid surgical procedure. The objective of this study was to review our early results with laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation. METHODS Between May 2004 and February 2007,...
متن کاملGiant staghorn ureteral calculus.
We are reporting a young female who presented with a history of right flank pain and urinary tract infection off and on. On investigation, she was found to have a giant fork-shaped ureteral calculus in a bifid ureter. Since her ipsilateral renal unit was nonfunctioning, nephroureterectomy was performed. Such a case of giant staghorn ureteral calculus in a bifid ureter has never been reported in...
متن کاملSpontaneous Ureteropelvic Junction Rupture Caused by a Small Distal Ureteral Calculus
To the Editor: Spontaneous ureteral rupture is rare, and urolithiasis is the most common cause.[1,2] The underlying mechanism may be the pressure around the ureteral wall due to stone impaction or a tear during the stone passage. Smaller distal stones exert higher intraureteral pressures than do larger proximal stones because of the greater length of obstructed ureter and the smaller diameter o...
متن کاملRobot-Assisted Laparoscopic Distal Ureteral Surgery
BACKGROUND The use of robotic assistance in adult genitourinary surgery has been successful in many operations, leading surgeons to test its use in other applications as well. METHODS Based on our use during prostatectomy, we have applied robotic surgery to complex distal ureteral surgeries since 2004 with successful outcomes. RESULTS A series of 11 patients who underwent robot-assisted lap...
