Abstract

Large-burden bladder stones often require percutaneous cystolithotomy or an open procedure. These approaches may not be feasible in certain patients who are at increased risk of operative complications. We present a novel technique for transurethral cystolitholapaxy using Amplatz sheath in the male urethra.
