  • Title: Treatment of lithiasis by the forced injection of liquid and ureteral catheterization by the translumbar route.
    Author: Wiess EQ, Leyva A, Hernández A.
    Journal: Int Surg; 1976 Aug; 61(8):419-22. PubMed ID: 965175.
    Abstract:
    We have used translumbar intrapelvic injection of liquid and intraureteral sliding of a catheter to push ureteral calculi and obtain their elimination through the bladder in 32 patients. We have described the technic and the results obtained. We had more success with the intraureteral catheter technic. No complications were observed in our cases. Ureteral physiology in relation to the favorable results obtained is discussed.
