Abstract
Ureteral strictures are uncommon problems in urological practice. The nonvascular application of the Gruntzig balloon catheter is proposed as an alternative to surgery in some of these patients. Six ureteral strictures were treated in 5 patients by balloon dilation with an 83% success rate.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
