abstract: Between 1981 and 1990, 151 patients with lower ureteral calculi received 163 applications of Zeiss basket (ZB) transurethrally. In the mean time we employed ZB in 17 patients who were operated for various causes. The success rate of 163 ZB applications was 88% and of 17 open surgical applications 94%.
