Abstract
Ureteral access with the flexible ureteroscope remains a challenge for the urologist. The routine use of a newly developed, site-specific ureteral access sheath facilitates entry into the ureter for fragmentation and basket extraction of ureteral and renal calculi. The step-by-step technique of ureteral access with the Access Sheath is described.Keywords
