چکیده
the incidence of stone disease among patients with congenital renal anomalies including malrotated kidney is more than in normal population due to poor urine drainage and stasis (1). various minimally invasive options have been used for the management. ureteroscopy and holmium:yag laser lithotripsy have been reported with favorable outcomes (2). we report a 30-year-old male who presented to our hospital having a right side malrotated kidney with a large stone in it. he underwent two session of ureteroscopy and holmium:yag laser lithotripsy

متن کاملEffectiveness and Safety of Ureteroscopic Holmium Laser Lithotripsy for Upper Urinary Tract Calculi in Elderly Patients.
Upper urinary tract calculi are common; however, there is no recommended treatment selection for elderly patients. Ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy (URS lithotripsy) is minimally invasive, and it provides a high stone-free rate (SFR) treatment for upper urinary tract calculi. Here, we retrospectively evaluated the surgical outcomes of URS lithotripsy after dividing the 189 cases into 3 g...
