A 34-year-old female patient with a right lumbar and back pain during micturition is presented. Ultrasonography and intravenous urogram both supported a possible bladder mass. Finally, a ureteral polyp was diagnosed on cystoscopy and resected by the ureteroscopic approach.

Fibroepithelial polyps are rare benign tumors originating from the mesoderm and are more commonly found in the renal pelvis and distal ureter and less frequently in the proximal ureter or bladder. This case report presents a fibroepithelial polyp occurring in the bladder of the fetus, showcasing its two-dimensional ultrasound, three-dimensional ultrasound, color Doppler, and spectral Doppler ultrasound findings, providing a reference for the accurate diagnosis of this condition.

Objective: To identify the factors influencing postoperative ureteral stenosis following holmium laser lithotripsy.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted of 106 patients who underwent ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy. The effects of variables including stone location, stone size, the duration of surgery, water intake, disease duration, and stone-associated polyps were investigated.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compared the effectiveness and safety of two laser methods, Moses and Raykeen, for treating impacted upper ureteral stones in 72 patients using flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy.
  • Results showed that the Moses laser had a shorter operative and lithotripsy time, but both methods had similar rates of successful stone removal and no significant complications.
  • The research concluded that both laser modes are effective, but the powdered mode of Raykeen may be more beneficial for treating these types of stones, as the ablation speed was linked to stone volume rather than density.

Introduction: A prolonged operative time of lithotripsy with ureteroscopy for urolithiasis increases the risk of infectious complications; however, few reports have investigated the factors prolonging the operative time for ureteral stones. We investigated the factors associated with longer operative time in ureteroscopy for ureteral stones.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed patients who underwent retrograde ureteroscopic lithotripsy for ureteral stones and achieved an endoscopic stone-free status between April 2019 and July 2022.
