Abstract
Methods for treating urinary (kidney) stones in patients using a small outer diameter ureteroscope may help overcome problems associated with conventional methods for removing kidney stones and may minimize patient discomfort, avoid hospitalization and reduce costs associated with more conventional surgical treatments of kidney stones. The methods can be carried out in an outpatient environment such as a urologists' office without requiring general anesthesia.
