We describe a flexible fiberpyeloscope with which it is possible to extract renal pelvic and caliceal stones easily. The tip of the fiberpyeloscope can be deflected 90 degrees up or down from the basic position with a hand-manipulated angle deflector know on the fiberpyeloscope grip. This flexibility allows the inside of the renal pelvis to be observed clearly from every direction. Specially designed stone forceps can be inserted through the channel of the fiberpyeloscope into the renal pelvis to grasp pelvic stones under direct visual observation. The fiberpyeloscope has been used in 4 cases of renal pelvic stones in which the pelvis was exposed by a subcostal flank incision. The stones were extracted successfully with the fiberpyeloscope, which was introduced through a small incision on the pelvis.
我们描述了一种灵活的纤维肾盂镜，借助它能够轻松取出肾盂和肾盏结石。通过纤维肾盂镜手柄上已知的手动角度偏转器，纤维肾盂镜的尖端可从基本位置向上或向下偏转90度。这种灵活性使得能从各个方向清晰观察肾盂内部。经过特殊设计的结石钳可通过纤维肾盂镜的通道插入肾盂，在直视下抓取肾盂结石。该纤维肾盂镜已用于4例通过肋下侧腹切口暴露肾盂的肾盂结石病例。结石通过在肾盂上的小切口插入的纤维肾盂镜成功取出。
