“…Fundamentally, endoscopic techniques for CUH were similar to the techniques for upper urinary tract urothelial cancer. 25 After examining the lower urinary tract, the upper urinary tract should be examined directly without any iatrogenic injury, so-called ''no touch techniques.'' A 6.9F semi-rigid ureteroscope is inserted into the bladder and introduced into the ureteral orifice under direct vision.…”
Advancements in endoscopic devices and techniques have enabled more accurate and less invasive diagnosis and treatment of CUH. Once CUH is defined, flexible ureteroscopy is the diagnostic and therapeutic technique of choice.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
