ABSTRACT

The efficiency and safety profile of the holmium laser has made this tool a versatile multi-purpose instrument for use in the endoscopic treatment of a wide variety of urologic disorders, in particular urinary calculi. Herein we review holmium laser physics, current endourologic laser lithotripsy applications, and the performance of new low power holmium laser devices.
