title: Antegrade ureteroscopy: a new tool in management of severe ureteral strictures.
abstract: A new method is described with which ureteral strictures are visualized by antegrade ureteroscopy. Under direct vision a catheter is manipulated through the stricture, which is then dilated. This method is especially useful in patients with a ureteroenterocutaneostomy. A patient is described in whom this technique was successful after other endoscopic techniques had failed.
