Objectives To evaluate the physical properties of seven ureteroscopes (URSs) and compare the maximal angle of deflection (MAD) when used with flexible and navigable suction access sheaths (FANSs) of varying sizes. Materials and Methods Seven commercial URSs (ranging from 6.3 to 9.5 F in size) were evaluated for outer diameter, irrigation flow rate ...

Ureteroscopy (URS) is a procedure which has been constantly evolving since the development of first generation devices 40 years ago. Progress towards smaller and more sophisticated equipment has been particularly rapid in the last decade. We review the significant steps that have been made toward improving outcomes and limiting morbidity with this ...
