Prospective Relationship Between the Rates of Spontaneous Passage of Distal Ureteral Stones and the Distal Lumen
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Patients (female, male, or queer) with ureteral stones (smaller than 1 cm at the widest diameter of the stone) without pyonephrosis, urinary sepsis, or untraceable pain will be enrolled into the study. Ureteral width at the smallest area of the ureter (in most cases UV junction) will be noted during regular ultrasound scans. The ratio of ureteral width to the stone diameter will be correlated with the spontaneous stone passage.

Passage Observed Enrolled patients whose stone and ureter diameters are obtained and their stone passage was successful during the follow-up. |
Procedure: Ultrasound
Enrolled patients underwent ultrasound scan of kidneys, ureters, and the bladder.
|
Passage Not Observed Enrolled patients whose stone and ureter diameters are obtained and their stone passage was not successful during the follow-up. |
Procedure: Ultrasound
Enrolled patients underwent ultrasound scan of kidneys, ureters, and the bladder.
