Ureteral stricture is caused by iatrogenic and non-iatrogenic factors. The treatment of ureteral stricture usually involves ureteral reconstruction. This study aimed to identify and analyze the top 100 most cited (T100) papers in ureteral stricture reconstruction, a field lacking prior bibliometric analysis.
Using the Web of Science Core Collection, we retrieved the T100 articles and review articles on ureteral stricture reconstruction and applied bibliometric tools (CiteSpace, VOSviewer, Bibliometrix) to examine citation patterns, authorship, geographic distribution, journal distribution, co-citation networks, and keyword trends.
The T100 articles received 4 to 130 citations each, with an average of 25.13. Publications originated from 23 countries, with the USA leading (56 papers, 1,635 total citations) followed by China (17 papers). Temple University (USA, 12 papers) and Peking University (China, 9 papers) were among the most productive institutions. Daniel D. Eun was the top contributing author (12 papers). , and were the most productive journals. Topic and keywords analysis shows the hot spots of mucosa grafts and robot-assisted surgery.
Our study provides a comprehensive overview of influential literature in ureteral stricture reconstruction. Ureteral stricture reconstruction is an emerging research field. Mucosa grafts and robot-assisted surgery are likely to be hot topics in the future.
输尿管狭窄由医源性和非医源性因素引起。输尿管狭窄的治疗通常涉及输尿管重建。本研究旨在识别和分析输尿管狭窄重建领域被引用次数最多的前100篇论文（T100），该领域此前缺乏文献计量分析。
利用科学网核心合集，我们检索了关于输尿管狭窄重建的T100篇文章和综述文章，并应用文献计量工具（CiteSpace、VOSviewer、Bibliometrix）来研究引用模式、作者情况、地理分布、期刊分布、共被引网络和关键词趋势。
T100篇文章每篇被引用4至130次，平均为25.13次。出版物来自23个国家，美国领先（56篇论文，共1635次引用），其次是中国（17篇论文）。美国天普大学（12篇论文）和中国北京大学（9篇论文）是产出最多的机构。Daniel D. Eun是贡献最大的作者（12篇论文）。 和 是产出最多的期刊。主题和关键词分析显示了黏膜移植和机器人辅助手术的热点。
我们的研究全面概述了输尿管狭窄重建领域的有影响力的文献。输尿管狭窄重建是一个新兴的研究领域。黏膜移植和机器人辅助手术可能是未来的热门话题。
