Abstract

Objective To comparison of ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy and holmium laser lithotripsy in treating ureteral calculi.Methods 200 patients with ureteral calculi of our hospital from November 2011 to February 2013 were divided into 2 groups and each for 100,and were treated with ureteroscopy pneumatic lithotripsy and holmium laser lithotripsy respectively.Results Operation time and hospitalization time of group B were lower than group A(P0.05),the disposable gravel success rate of two groups were 74.0% and 90.0%(P0.05),the stones drained rate were 88.0% and 97.0%(P0.05),and the complication rate of two groups were 5.0% and 3.0%(P0.05).Conclusion Two minimally invasive ureteral calculi lithotripsy have their own different characteristics,and holmium laser lithotripsy in treating ureteral calculi has the virtue of better effect and higher efficiency,the reasonable choice should be based on the specific situation.
