| Core Tip |
Endoureteral ablation using laser or radiofrequency ablation presents a promising new treatment for urinary fistulae, converting energy to heat to induce fibrosis and occlude fistulas. Early successes in both animal and human models indicate that this method could offer a less invasive, more effective, and cost-efficient alternative to current treatments, particularly benefiting patients unfit for surgery. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and establish endoureteral ablation as a viable clinical option. |
