Abstract:
In a series of 13 adults with calculi in ureteroceles, 10 cases underwent endoscopic meatotomy associated with endoscopic lithotripsy. In 2 bulky ureteroceles with calculi, the authors performed excision of the ureterocele and reimplantation of the ureter. In one case, the authors successfully performed extracorporeal lithotripsy. The authors obtained good results in all cases. Endoscopic meatotomy with lithotripsy is a very useful procedure for treatment of small or medium sized ureteroceles with calculi in adults.
