Case report of ureteroscopy assisted laparoscopic ureterolithotomy for multiple large ureteric calculi

Managing patient having multiple large ureteric calculi at different locations in ureter with minimal invasive surgery is always a challenge for the surgeon. We hereby present the case report of ureteroscopy assisted laparoscopic ureterolithotomy for multiple large ureteric calculi in proximal and distal ureter in a young female. In this unique and novel method ureteroscopy and laparoscopy was done simultaneously over the patient using two camera units and two surgeons. This approach avoided open ureterolithotomy scar and also extensive dissection of ureter. This unique surgery can be considered as confluence of endourology and laparoscopy.
