Abstract：Objective: To analyze the clinical efficacy of YAG laser lithotripsy and YAG laser lithotripsy combined with traditional Chinese herbs for the treatment of ureteral calculus. Methods: Between Dec. 2008 and Aug. 2014, 480 inpatients with ureteral calculus in our urological department were randomly divided into two groups: YAG laser group (n=240) and YAG laser combined with traditional Chinese herbs group (n=240). The clinical data were collected, and the one-off successful rate of lithotripsy, the calculus clearance rate, the mean lithotripsy time, mean hospital stay and complications were analyzed. Results: The mean hospital stay, mean lithotripsy time, one-off successful rate, and calculus clearance rate in YAG laser combined with traditional Chinese herbs group were significantly superior (P＜0.05) to their counterparts of YAG laser group, and the complication rate was lower in YAG laser combined with traditional Chinese herbs group (P＜0.05). Conclusions: The YAG laser lithotripsy through ureteroscopy combined with traditional Chinese herbs was safe, efficient, minimally-invasive and effective to treat ureteral calculus. It could be the preferred therapy for ureteral calculus.
