Ureteroscopic Holmium Laser Lithotripsy for the Ureter Stones with Renal Colic in Emergency

TU Jian-min

Abstract

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy for the treatment of ureteral calculi with renal colic in emergency.Method:A total of 76 cases of ureteral calculi with renal colic were treated by ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy.Result:Successful lithotripsy was achieved in 72 cases,two cases failed due to movement of calculus to pelvis and another two failed because of ureterostenosis at inferior segment.The successful rate of lithotripsy was 94.7%,The relief rate of renal colic was 97.4%.Conclusion:Ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy is an effective and safe method for the treatment of ureteral calculi with renal colic.
