Single-use ureteroscopes have become increasingly important in modern endourology, especially the 7.5 FR disposable ureteroscope. These instruments were specially developed for the treatment of ureteral diseases and offer numerous advantages over reusable models, but also over the standard 9.2 FR ureteroscopes.

 1. Smaller diameter

• Less traumatic: The smaller diameter of 7.5 FR (approx. 2.5 mm) compared to 9.2 FR (approx. 3.1 mm) results in less trauma and irritation to the ureter during the procedure. This can reduce post-operative pain and the risk of complications such as ureteral strictures.
• Better passability: A 7.5 FR ureteroscope can be inserted more easily into narrow or obstructed ureters, which is particularly beneficial for patients with narrow or obstructed ureters.

2. improved patient comfort

• Less discomfort: The smaller diameter results in less discomfort during and after surgery. This can shorten recovery time and increase patient satisfaction.

3. extended application possibilities

• Treatment of sensitive patients: The smaller ureteroscope is ideal for patients who are more sensitive to instrumental procedures, such as children or patients with anatomical abnormalities.

This is in addition to the advantages of the disposable endoscope, such as excellent image quality, ergonomic design and anytime availability.

The 7.5 FR single-use ureteroscope therefore represents a significant innovation in endourology. It combines high functionality with safety and cost-effectiveness, making it a valuable addition to the urologist's toolkit. With increasing availability and acceptance of this technology, it is to be expected that it will play an important role in the treatment of ureteral diseases in the future.
