- W2099710040 abstract "Objective To present the feasibility and safety of fluoro-less endoscopic treatment of ureteral stones to diminish radiation exposure of the patient and operating team, and to determine circumstances where a fluoroscopic imaging is mandatory. Methods Between 2010 and 2011, 93 patients with ureteral calculi who underwent ureteroscopic treatment by experienced urologists were retrospectively evaluated. Manipulations, such as guidewire, ureteral stent insertion, and balloon dilatation were performed with visual and tactile cues. Patient demographics, need for fluoroscopic imaging, operation and fluoroscopy time, and complication and success rates were investigated. Results The mean age of patients was 34.03 ± 12.09 years (range, 9-63 years). The mean stone size was 10.64 ± 3.16 mm (range, 6-17 mm). The stones were localized in the proximal, middle, and distal segments in 11, 30, and 52 patients, respectively. The mean duration of the operation was 34.51 ± 7.94 minutes (range, 24-55 minutes). Stone-free status was achieved for 90 patients (96.77%). Fluoroscopic imaging was required for 7 patients with a mean fluoroscopy time of 9 ± 4.72 seconds (range, 4-16 seconds) for the following reasons: stone migration to the kidney (3 patients), double collecting system with 2 ureters (1 patient), and ureteral orifice stricture extending to the upper segment (1 patient). No major complications were observed, but minor complications were observed in 11 patients (11.8%). Conclusion The ureteroscopic treatment of ureteral stones can be safely and effectively performed in experienced hands, with limited or no usage of fluoroscopy except in special circumstances, such as anatomic abnormalities, upper ureteral strictures, and impacted ureteral stones leading to ureteral tortuosity, kinking, and obstruction.
