Abstract

Aim: Most ureteral stones pass spontaneously. But patients who have a calculi in an ureterocele could not pass their stone, because of narrow ureteral orifice. These stones may remain asympto- matic until hematuria or obstruction occurs. Materials and Methods: Holmium laser has many uses in urology, including soft tissue incision and calculus fragmentation. These properties are ideal for endoscopic management of the ureterocele calculus Results: We present a young patient who has no spesific and severe symptoms with a hypofunctional left kidney because of giant calculi in an ureterocele Conclusion: Its imaging characteristics on intravenous pyelography and endoscopic treatment were emphasized.

Özet

Amaç: Üreter taşlarının çoğu kendiliğinden düşmektedir. Üreterosel içi taşı olan hastaların dar açıklık nedeniyle taşları kendiliğinden düşürmeleri zordur. Bu taşlar hematüri veya obstruksiyon oluşana kadar asemptomatik olarak kalabilir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Holmium lazer ürolojide taş kırma ve yumuşak doku kesme özellikleri de dahil birçok alanda kullanılmaktadır. Bu özellikleri endoskopik üreter taşı tedavisinde kullanılması için mükemmel bir seçenek olmasını sağlar. Bulgular: Bu yazıda spesifik ve ağır semptomları olmaksızın, dev üreterosel taşı nedeniyle sol böbrek hipofonksiyonu gelişen genç bir hasta sunulmuştur. Sonuç: Üreterosel içindeki taşın intravenöz piyelografi görüntüleme özellikleri ve endoskopik tedavisi vurgulanmıştır.
