Abstract

To evaluate the use of radiopaque stickers during endoscopic surgical cases to prevent wrong side surgery. We used radiopaque markers before planned endoscopic surgery to ensure correct side surgery. These markers are labeled "R" and "L" and are identifiable during fluoroscopy. These markers were a valuable tool to prevent wrong side endoscopic upper tract procedures. They were also well-accepted by patients at their preoperative surgical verification process. Radiopaque stickers can assist in the prevention of wrong side surgery during upper tract endoscopic procedures.
