title: [Ureteral calculus--change in therapy at the Urology Department of the Vienna General Polyclinic (1982-1986)].
abstract: In this paper 151 patients treated for ureteric stones in our department (January 1982 to July 1986) are reviewed. Open ureterotomy was almost completely discontinued during this time. The success rates for the different methods are: ureterotomy: 100%, ESWL (78% in combination with endourology): 100%, endourology: 91%, "Zeiss-loop": 62%. In our department endourological procedures are still the most economical method of ureteric stone removal.
