ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate and evaluate the clinical signiifcance of lfexible ureteroscopy in computed tomography urography negative patients with upper urinary tract hematuria. To improve the diagnostic rate of patients with upper urinary tract hematuria. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the cases of 10 computed tomography urography negative patients with upper urinary tract hematuria. The age ranges from 38 to 75 years old, and the average of them is 45.2 years old. The patients consist of 7 male patients and 3 female patients. Among them, 4 cases were on the left upper urinary tract cases, 6 cases were right upper urinary tract. All patients received lfexible ureteroscopy to conifrm the diagnosis and take the relevant treatment. Results In the total of 10 patients, 3 patients (30%) were diagnosed with tumors of renal pelvis, a renal arteriovenous ifstula was found in 1 case (10%), 3 patients (30%) were considered non-specific inflammation, other 3 patients (30%) had no obvious abnormalities. Conclusions Flexible ureteroscopy has significantly clinical diagnosis in computed tomography urography negative patients with upper urinary tract hematuria.
