Electrolysis for recanalization of urinary collecting system obstructions: a percutaneous approach.

Abstract
Nine recent endourologic cases [human] are presented that evidence percutaneous electrolysis and electrocautery as new and safe techniques for incising the urothelium. Electrolysis with balloon dilation was employed to remove stones sequestered behind infundibular and/or diverticular neck stenoses, to correct ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) stenoses and strictures and to recanalize a totally obstructed fibrotic UPJ.
