Instrumentation in endourology
Abstract
Success with endourological procedures requires expertise and instrumentation. This review focuses on the instrumentation required for ureteroscopy and percutaneous nephrolithotomy, and provides a critical assessment of in vitro and clinical studies that have evaluated the comparative effectiveness of these medical devices.
Keywords: endourology; instrumentation; nephrolithotomy; technology; ureteroscopy.
