Abstract
There is a rise in the incidence of stone disease in the industrial nations. Due to this, the number of endurological procedures will also rise. Sometimes endourological instruments will be fragmented accidentally together with the destruction of the stone. A search for articles on this subject was performed. The aim of this article is to provide a review about the literature on this subject and how this subject can be managed today and in the future.
