Abstract

A 58-year-old man presented with a stone within the dilated intravesical ureter, which was probably attributable to a previous ureteroscopy. Transurethral incision of the right intravesical ureter and lithotripsy were carried out without subsequent urinary tract impairment. Although some complications resulting from ureteroscopy, such as ureteral stricture, ureteral perforation and vesicoureteral reflux, have been reported, this complication is considered to be very rare.
