Surgical approach and treatment outcomes of endoscopic ureteric stone removal.
We evaluated the surgical and treatment outcomes of endoscopic ureteric stone removal at a single institution over the past 7 years. We reviewed the records of patients who underwent ureteroscopic stone removal. One hundred seventy-eight patients underwent 168 endoscopic ureteric stone removals. The mean patient age was 46.6 years (range, 13-75), and the median procedure length was 44 minutes (range, 22-160). Indications included renal colic (n = 103), flank pain (n = 54), hematuria (n = 18), and asymptomatic stones (n = 5). At the completion of the procedure, 11 ureteric calculi were fragmented with lithotripsy and required retrieval with forceps. Mean stone free rates for calculus size 1-2, 3-4, and 5-10 mm were 85%, 72%, and 58%, respectively (P = 0.004). Stone free rates were significantly greater in patients with a body mass index less than 30 compared with those with a body mass index of 30 or more (91% vs 65%, P = 0.008). One patient had a ureterovaginal fistula and required laparoscopic repair. Other complications included 1 patient with ureteral perforation, 2 patients with an asymptomatic postoperative extravasation, and 1 patient with a postoperative migration of a ureteral stent. Two patients underwent endoscopic ureteric stone removal for stones too small to be visualized by fluoroscopy and required more than 2 sessions.
