Ureteral stricture rate after endoscopic treatments for urolithiasis and related risk factors: systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsThe overall US rate ranges from 0.3 to 4.9%, with an increasing trend in the last few years. It is influenced by type of treatment, stone location and impaction, preoperative hydronephrosis and intraoperative perforation. Future standardized reporting and prospective and more extended follow-up studies might contribute to a better understanding of US risks related to calculi treatment.

Outcomes and Predictors of Delayed Intervention After Renal Trauma
CONCLUSIONS: The most common delayed interventions after renal trauma were renal embolization and ureteral stent.
