To analyze the role and the results achieved with the Lithoclast in the treatment of distal ureteral calculi in the era of ESWL.From March, 1994 to April, 1995, 41 patients with ureteral calculi were treated by ureteroscopy and direct stone fragmentation with the Lithoclast.90% of the patients were stone-free one month after treatment; 3 patients in whom stone fragmentation could not be achieved required ESWL; one patient required open surgery for ureteral detachment.Ureteroscopy and stone fragmentation with the Lithoclast is a good, inexpensive mode of treatment of ureteral stones and is particularly indicated as the first mode of treatment in those centers, like ours, where ESWL is unavailable. |
