摘要
OBJECTIVE To describe specific techniques of holmium laser lithotripsy for intrarenal calculi based on characteristics of the stone. METHODS The dancing, chipping, fragmenting, and popcorn techniques are used to ablate stones ureteroscopically with the holmium laser. RESULTS All techniques lead to successful stone ablation, with the different techniques being applied preferentially to stones with different characteristics. CONCLUSION Honing precise techniques of ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy can lead to more efficient lithotripsy. UROLOGY 81: 442-445, 2013. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc.
