Abstract

SUMMARY 1. The endoscopic treatment of 51 ureteroceles is described. 39 were treated by transurethral resection, 11 by transurethral incision and 1 underwent a “spontaneous cure”. 2. A comparison is made between the results of incision and resection showing that while incision is simple and effective, transurethral resection is also a reliable method of treatment, especially in the uncomplicated adult cases, so long as the resection is confined to the ureterocele and the underlying vesical muscle left intact. 3. The prognosis in bilateral adult ureteroceles is good.
