Urologic Clinics of North America, 2004
The flexible ureteroscope has revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of the entire upper urinary tract. Endoscopic tools have evolved, providing the surgeon with the armamentarium necessary to treat many different pathologic processes. Almost all renal calculi can be treated with retrograde ureteroscopy.

The development of ureteroscopy has led to a dramatic change in the management of ureteral stones as well as other ureteral pathological conditions in adults. Until recently, size limitations have prevented the technique from being used in small children. We have used ureteroscopy for diagnosis and therapy in 4 children less than 10 years old.

Ureteroscopy and ureteropyeloscopy
Urology, 1984Transurethral endoscopic access to the upper urinary tract using rigid optics is evolving into a significant addition to the specialty of urology. The basic endoscopic expertise urologists have perfected for use in the urethra, prostate, and bladder is readily transposed to the ureter and renal pelvis.

Complications Following Ureteroscopy
Journal of Urology, 1986We report 4 cases of ureteral injury and stricture formation following ureteroscopic stone manipulation. Possible etiologies of stricture formation and our methods of managing them are discussed. The complications of ureteroscopy have been reported only rarely and the ureteroscopist should be aware that the procedure is not always benign.

Recent innovations in imaging equipment and novel instrumentation have helped ureteroscopy evolve from a diagnostic to a therapeutic tool. In this review, the authors highlight several of the most recent advances in ureteroscopy that have helped allow unprecedented access, visualization, and treatment of upper urinary tract pathologic conditions.

Journal of The Royal Naval Medical Service, 1989
Abstract Thirty-nine patients underwent 44 ureteroscopic procedures between January 1985 and August 1988 for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Twenty six procedures were undertaken on 23 patients for extraction of ureteric calculi and were successful on the initial attempt in 14 (61%). Four stones not removed on the first attempt were

Ureteroscopy. An Alternative View
British Journal of Urology, 1985Summary— Forty‐six ureteroscopies were carried out over a 12‐month period. A simple technique is described. The desired level was reached in 72% of cases and the pre‐operative objective achieved in 60% of cases overall. Fifty per cent of all ureteric stones were safely retrieved by ureteroscopy.

Ancillary instrumentation for ureteroscopy
Urologic Clinics of North America, 2004As the quality of ureteroscopy continues to improve, ancillary instrumentation will advance. The endourologist now has a vast supply of specially designed guidewires, stents, balloons, and baskets. These technologies have expanded the realm of cases that may be managed endoscopically.

Percutaneous antegrade flexible ureteroscopy
Urology, 1986A flexible endoscope has been used for antegrade percutaneous ureteroscopy after percutaneous lithotripsy. The instrument, the ACMI Flexiscope, is 2.5 mm in diameter and has fiberoptic bundles for illumination and visualization but no channel for irrigation. Techniques for introduction and irrigation are considered.
