Abstract

Introduction & Objectives: Single use ureteroscopes have gained increasing use in the past few years. In particular, their use during difficult calculi treatment has been proposed in order decrease the amount of damage to expensive, reusable ureteroscopes. Currently there is very little literature which exists which directly compares the performance of commercial digital, single use flexible ureterorenoscopes. We aimed to compare two single use, digital flexible ureterorenoscopes (Pusen PU3022 and Boston Scientific LithoVue) and to compare them to a reusable, video ureterorenoscope (Olympus URF-V2) for the treatment of renal calculi.
