Abstract:
Herein we report an experience of the vaginal ureterolithotomy. The patient was a 48-year-old woman with a juxtavesical left ureteral stone, which was vaginally palpable. Although this operation has limited indications, it is a safe and easy method of removing stones from the lowermost ureter especially in the women. This method seems to have considerable value to be attempted in the carefully select patients.
