Outpatient Endourologic Procedures

Urologic Clinics of North America, 1987
Many endourologic procedures can be performed routinely on an outpatient basis, including flexible cystoscopy, ureterorenoscopy, and percutaneous nephroscopy through a mature tract. Others, such as percutaneous nephrostomy, nephrostolithotomy, and antegrade ureteral stent placement, can sometimes be done on an outpatient basis.

Endourology in perspective

Urology, 1986
Rapid technical advancements have taken place in rigid and flexible lens optics, in radiologic localization using fluoroscopy and real-time ultrasound, and in ultrasonic and shock-wave fragmentation of urinary calculi. The subsequent development of techniques for “closed controlled manipulation of the urinary tract” has resulted in a new urologic ...
