Over the past 2 decades, ureteroscopy has changed from a procedure considered second-line to shockwave lithotripsy to a commonly performed procedure for renal and ureteral stones. The increase in the use of ureteroscopy is due largely to improvements in technique and technology during this time period. Herein we review outcomes of ureteroscopy in terms of success rates, complications, and unique patient populations. This work will synthesize the data as it pertains to the practice of ureteroscopy for all endourological indications, including stone disease and management of upper tract urothelial carcinoma, as well as review state-of-the-art techniques.
在过去20年里，输尿管镜检查已从一种被视为仅次于冲击波碎石术的二线治疗方法，转变为一种常用于治疗肾和输尿管结石的手术。输尿管镜检查使用量的增加主要归因于这一时期技术和工艺的改进。在此，我们从成功率、并发症和特殊患者群体等方面回顾输尿管镜检查的结果。这项工作将综合与输尿管镜检查在所有腔内泌尿外科适应症（包括结石疾病和上尿路尿路上皮癌的治疗）相关的数据，并回顾最新技术。
