ABSTRACT

Objective: To Study the Frequency of Proximal Migration of Urinary Stone During Ureteroscopic Pneumonic Lithotripsy.

Study Design: Descriptive Cross Sectional Experimental Study

Place and Duration of Study: This study was conducted at the department of Urology Lady Reading Hospital Peshawar, Nawaz Shareef kidney hospital swat, DHQ teaching hospital Sawabi, Women medical college Abbottabad from January, 2019 to May, 2020.
