Eligibility Criteria
A total of 60 cases will be assigned to either ESWL or URS randomly
You may qualify if:
- \- The study will include patients in the age group of 18-70 years with body mass index of less than or equal to 30 kg/m2 with Upper Ureteral Calculi more than or equal to 1 cm with density about 900 - 1100 HU
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with distal obstruction
- Impacted stones : An impacted stone is defined as a stone where a guidewire will not pass without ancillary measures and/or a stone that does not move when forceful irrigation is applied ureteroscopically
- Marked hydronephrosis : gross dilation/ballooning of the renal pelvis and calyces with loss of borders between the renal pelvis and calyces and renal atrophy seen as cortical thinning
- Radiolucent stones
- Pregnancy
- Stones in Children
- Spinal deformity
- Morbid obesity
- Patients on Aspirin
