Tips on performing urohydropropulsion.
Untitled Document
“Often, especially in cases where the uroliths have recently passed into the urethra, the urethroliths are easily flushed into the bladder lumen during the first attempt. However, in some situations, the uroliths do not move, or move only a short distance, before the pressure in the urethral lumen has dissipated. If this occurs, it may be necessary to repeat the procedure several times before all the uroliths reach the bladder lumen.”
