No ureteral catheter mini percutaneous nephrolithotomy (NUC-mPCNL) achieves enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS)

open access: yesScientific Reports
Conventional mini percutaneous nephrolithotomy (mPCNL) typically necessitates the pre-operative placement of ureteral catheters. With the development of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS), we introduce a novel approach: no ureteral catheter mini ...

Assessment of the Urinary System

open access: yesVeterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1992
History and physical examination alone will most often provide conclusive evidence of urinary tract disorders in ruminants. Detailed examination of the urinary system is described, and examples of disease are presented. Ancillary testing may be indicated to confirm the diagnosis, direct treatment, or clarify the prognosis.
