Bilateral one-session ureteroscopy is a safe and effective procedure for treating conditions like kidney stones and blockages. This study found no major complications in patients undergoing this combined approach.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Endourology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Bilateral ureteroscopy is often performed in separate sessions, increasing patient burden.
  • Unilateral ureteroscopy is a common procedure, but bilateral approaches require careful consideration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of performing bilateral ureteroscopy in a single session.
  • To assess indications and outcomes for same-day bilateral ureteroscopic procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 15 bilateral ureteroscopies in 13 patients over 4 years.
  • Procedures included management of calculi, hydronephrosis, hematuria, and stent placement.
  • Ureteral dilation preceded endoscopic examination (rigid or flexible).

Main Results:

  • Successful treatment for various indications including stones and blockages.
  • No major short-term or long-term complications were reported.
  • Effective for bilateral ureteral stent placement when other methods failed.

Conclusions:

  • Bilateral one-session ureteroscopy is a viable and safe option.
  • This approach can be beneficial for specific urological conditions.
  • Minimally invasive treatment for bilateral ureteral issues can be consolidated.
