Risk factors for ureteroscopic lithotripsy: a case-control study and analysis of 385 cases of holmium laser ureterolithotripsy

摘要

Ureteroscopic lithotripsy has become the first choice for the treatment of middle and lower ureteral stones, but it still has a certain rate of surgical failure. Here we aimed to determine the factors that may affect the success rate of holmium laser ureterolithotripsy (HLU) and provide the basis and guidance for its future use.
