It is a difficult problem of diagnosis and treatment. The purpose of this study is to analyze the safety and efficacy of ureteropyeloscopy for treatment of chronic unilateral hematuria. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 109 patients with chronic unilateral hematuria from 1987 to 2009. 22 years were divided into two periods (I: 1987-1997.10, II: 1997.11-2009) because larger scopes, which required ureteral dilation, were utilized in the I period. Since November/1997 (the II period), our technique has been established using a 6.9 Fr semi-rigid ureteroscope (Multi-scope, Wolf, Germany) and 6.9Fr flexible ureteroscope (URF-P3, Olympus, Japan). Distal to middle ureter is evaluated with a semi-rigid ureteroscope without a guidewire. Subsequently, the flexible ureteroscope is advanced into the upper ureter to renal pelvis, while a lowest flow pressure of irrigant is kept by using Uromat RESULTS One hundred and nine (59 male, 50 female) patients were identified, with a median age of 37 (range 14-80) years. The median preoperative duration of grosshematuria was 5 (range 1-144) months. The entire collecting system was completely inspected in all patients, including 62 (57%) minute venous rupture (MVR), 21 (19%) hemangioma, 5 (5%) papillary tumor, 3 (3%) varix, 1 (1%) calculus and 17 (16%) no lesions. The incidence of ″no lesions″ was less in the recent 12 years (9%) than the first 10 years (27%), while the incidence of MVR increased from 41 to 66%. All patients, except one patient who underwent nephroureterectomy for urothelial cancer following ureteropyeloscopy, were treated successfully endoscopically. Only 3/109 (3%) experienced recurrent bleeding. No recurrent bleeding was encountered in the recent 13 years. CONCLUSIONS Ureteropyeloscopy is highly useful for evaluation and treatment of chronic unilateral hematuria with minimum complications. The advent of miniaturized ureteroscopes with technical improvement has contributed to a more accurate etiology of chronic unilateral hematuria.
