Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the curative effect of endoscopic treatment of ureteral stones accompanied with polyps. Methods A total of 35 cases of ureteral stones complicated with polyps were treated under ureteroscope by using electrocauterization and pneumatic lithotripter. Results All polyps were successfully cauterized. Stones were fragmented in 88.6% (31 of 35) of the cases.Because the stones moved into renal pelvis, ESWL was adopted after the intubation of double-J catheter in 2 cases. Conclusions After polyps have been cauterized by electrocauterization in advance, the treatment for ureteral stones by using ureteroscopy and pneumatic lithotripter is safe and effective.
