752 Initial experience with the first active primary and secondary deflecting flexible ureteroscope: DUR 8 elite

New technology in the treatment of nephrolithiasis

“…The DUR 8-elite ureteroscope (ACMI) was the first to offer dual primary and secondary active tip deflection that totals 2708. Early experience suggests that secondary deflection is necessary in approximately 20-29% of cases [6,7], particularly with regard to lower pole access. Furthermore, the degradation in maximal deflection with the insertion of accessory instruments is less pronounced with dual-deflection scopes [8].…”
