ABSTRACT
Ureterolithiasis is rare in children. Although ureterorenoscopy is needed only in few cases, because of the small number of children who suffer from ureteral stones, the development of small-calibre semi-flexible instruments for the treatment of any ureteral stones can be seen as a useful extension of the range of therapeutic options. The established technique used in adults can also be applied in children. It is recommended that endoscopic stone treatment should be carried out in children only by operators who can draw on a wide experience of such procedures in adults. The small-calibre instruments must be used and extreme caution is still required. We report on our experience with ureterorenoscopy in 12 children.
