title: New versatile operating room table and mobile C-arm fluoroscopic system.
abstract: The rapid development of endourologic procedures and ultrasonic renal stone surgery has left most hospital operating rooms without a suitable radiolucent operating table and a safe up-to-date C-arm fluoroscopic unit for these operations. A new radiolucent operating room table top combined with a new mobile C-arm fluoroscopy unit will allow versatility in the operating room for these percutaneous antegrade renal and ureteral operations. This table offers the additional benefits of being excellent for transurethral resection of the prostate, bladder tumors, litholapaxy, and cystoscopy as well as open bladder, prostate, trauma, and renal surgery. It also offers adequate space under it so that the microsurgeon can get his knees under the table while seated to do vasovasostomy and vasoepididymostomy with comfort. The urologist can thus perform all types of surgery on one table top and also relieve the cystoscopy room of a crowded schedule by doing some endoscopic surgery in the regular operating room.
