Abstract:
Over the last few years. the managements of urologic diseases have been changed rapidly to less invasive procedures, especially endourologic surgery. Recently. we experienced a case of caliceal in fundibular stricture due to renal tuberculosis and a case of caliceal diverticulum containing stones which were treated endourologically. In latter case. we also performed electrofulguration of the wall of the diverticulum. The techniques used and results achieved in 2 patients who have been success fully managed are discussed.
