Evaluation of ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy for ureteral stones
Objective: To evaluate success rate, auxiliary procedures and complications associated with ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy of ureteric stones. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted among 100 patients between May 2011 and July 2013. The mean age of the patients was 32 ± 3 years. Ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy was performed using rigid Wolf ureteroscope and Swiss Lithoclast dev...

متن کاملUreteroscopic management of distal ureteral stones in children: holmium:YAG laser vs. pneumatic lithotripsy
Results: Their ages ranged from 18 months to 14 years (mean: 8.5 ± 3.5 years). The overall success rate for the holmium:YAG laser lithotripsy (100%) was higher than that of pneumatic lithotripsy (81.8%), but the difference was insignificant (P = 0.087). The complication rate was higher in pneumatic lithotripsy than in holmium:YAG laser lithotripsy (36.4% versus 4%, P = 0.023). Treatment time an...
متن کاملUreteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy of impacted ureteral calculi.
INTRODUCTION This work evaluates the results of ureteroscopic treatment of impacted ureteral stones with a pneumatic lithotripter. MATERIALS AND METHODS From March 1997 to May 2002, 42 patients with impacted ureteral stones were treated by retrograde ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy. Twenty-eight patients were female and 14 were male. The stone size ranged from 5 to 20 mm. The ureteral sit...
متن کاملTRANS URETERAL LITHOTRIPSY
From Sep. 1984 to Aug. 1990,99 patients were treated for ureteral stone using the urekroscope. In five patients ureteroscopy was repeated for a second stone. In one patient the procedure was diagnostic in nature and in the rest of the patients it had a curative value. In 60 patients the stone was removed by electrohydraulic and basket combination and in25 cases, dilatation alone was enough...
