Flexible ureteroscopy is advancing for kidney stone treatment. New tools and techniques enable more complex intrarenal procedures, improving patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Flexible ureteroscopy (FURS) has evolved significantly in managing kidney conditions.
  • Advancements include improved scope design, imaging, and specialized instruments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current applications of FURS for complex intrarenal procedures.
  • To highlight the impact of technological progress on FURS capabilities.

Main Methods:

  • Review of recent literature and technological advancements in flexible ureteroscopy.
  • Analysis of the integration of new instrumentation and holmium laser lithotripsy.

Main Results:

  • Improved ureteroscope design enhances maneuverability and visualization.
  • Smaller, disposable instruments expand treatment options for intrarenal pathology.
