Child Ureteroscope 3/4/5fr

Description

The Child Ureteroscope 3/4/5Fr is a precision-engineered endoscopic instrument designed specifically for pediatric urological procedures. Tailored for smaller anatomy, it provides urologists with a minimally invasive solution for examining and treating the upper urinary tract in infants and young children.

During the procedure, a trained healthcare professional inserts the ureteroscope via the urethra and bladder into the ureter. This allows direct visualization of the ureter and renal pelvis. It enables diagnosis and intervention in cases of congenital abnormalities, ureteral strictures, stones, or suspected malignancies, with minimal trauma and high precision.
