The hospital’s Associate Professor of Urology, Dr Terka Atim, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Gwagwalada, FCT, that the surgery was a giant stride in the treatment of urinary tract infection and kidney stone.
He explained that endourology is a minimally invasive surgical sub-speciality in urology that involves using endoscopes and other instruments inserted into the urinary tract.
He said “It is commonly used to diagnose and treat conditions such as kidney stones, like the patient we operated upon in UATH recently on ureteral strictures, bladder tumours and urinary tract abnormalities.
