Secondary signs of non-enhanced CT prior to laser ureterolithotripsy: is treatment outcome predictable?

J Endourol 22(3):415-8 (2008) PMID 18298312

To correlate the presence of secondary signs of non-enhanced computed tomography (NECT) in renal units harboring ureteral calculi with intraoperative findings and treatment outcome after holmium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser (Ho:YAG) ureterolithotripsy.

  1. Impact of Stone Size, Location, Composition, Impaction, and Hydronephrosis on the Efficacy of Holmium:YAG-Laser Ureterolithotripsy

    Eur Urol 52(6):9 (2007) PMID 17459573

    In this series, stone-free rates in Ho:YAG ureterolithotripsy were significantly higher in distal and nonimpacted stones but were independent of stone size and composition and the degree of hydronephrosis. Ureterolithotripsy in proximal stones was associated with higher intraoperative complication a...
