Ureteroscopic lithotripsy in the Trendelenburg position for extracting obstructive upper ureteral obstruction stones: a prospective, randomized, comparative trial

Abstract

This study introduced a new position for ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy for patients with upper ureteral calculi. The Trendelenburg position can improve the SFR and may provide an optional surgical method for treating upper ureteral calculi.
