Ex vivo renal perfusion and autotransplantation in treatment of calculous disease or abdominal aortic aneurysm. [PDF]
, 1975 Two more indications are described for temporary ex vivo perfusion of kidneys with revascularization of these organs as autografts to orthotopic or heterotopic locations. One of the patients had staghorn calculi which were removed from a solitary kidney.

Triplicate Ureter with Complicated Ureteral Cyst in an Ectopic Malrotated Kidney: A Rare Association
Journal of Health Science and Medical Research (JHSMR), 2023 One of the rarest anomalies of the renal collecting system is ureteral triplication along with the presence of a complex ureteral cyst. We describe an unusual case of a 37-year-old man who presented with fever and abdominal pain.

Cystatin C in Evaluating Renal Function in Ureteral Calculi Hydronephrosis in Adults
Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2019 Background: Serum cystatin C (CysC) is still becoming used as a marker of renal function but is far from being commonly used worldwide. The purpose of this study was to characterize the ureteral calculi patients with hydronephrosis-caused CysC changes in

Addition of Sodium Bicarbonate to Irrigation Solution May Assist in Dissolution of Uric Acid Fragments During Ureteroscopy [PDF]
, 2018 Introduction: We hypothesized that adding sodium bicarbonate (bicarb) to normal saline (NS) irrigation during ureteroscopy in patients with uric acid (UA) nephrolithiasis may assist in dissolving small stone fragments produced during laser lithotripsy ...
