Endoscopic transvesical extramural ureterolithotomy offers a successful solution for impacted lower ureteral calculi when conventional methods fail. This minimally invasive technique achieved a 90% success rate with no long-term complications in a small patient cohort.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Endourology

Background:

  • Lower ureteral calculi can be challenging to treat with conventional methods.
  • Impacted stones may require alternative surgical approaches.
  • Endoscopic techniques offer less invasive options for stone removal.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the technique of endoscopic transvesical extramural ureterolithotomy.
  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of this approach for lower ureteral calculi.
  • To present outcomes in patients who failed other treatments.

Main Methods:

  • Description of the endoscopic transvesical extramural ureterolithotomy procedure.
  • Retrospective review of ten patients with impacted lower ureteral calculi.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Analysis of stone removal success and complication rates.

    • Main Results:

    • The described endoscopic technique was utilized in ten patients.
    • Nine out of ten impacted lower ureteral calculi were successfully removed.
    • No long-term complications were observed in the treated patients.

    Conclusions:

    • Endoscopic transvesical extramural ureterolithotomy is an effective treatment for impacted lower ureteral calculi.
    • This approach provides a viable alternative when conventional methods are unsuccessful.
    • The technique demonstrates a favorable safety profile with no significant long-term adverse events.
