  • Title: [Transurethral ureterolithotripsy in the treatment of ureteral calculi].
    Author: Papadopoulos I, Figge M, Weissbach L.
    Journal: Urologe A; 1986 Nov; 25(6):322-4. PubMed ID: 3811083.
    Abstract:
    We report our experiences with transurethral ureterolithotripsy for treatment of ureteral calculi in 68 patients. 67% of the ureteral stones were extracted successfully. Failures and complications occur often by higher localisation of concrements. Only in 2 patients major complications occurred. Late complications (Ureter Manipulation Syndrome-UMS) were not observed in our patients. In cases with ureteral perforations or mucous membrane lesions ureteral stent must be used.
