AB  - Retroperitoneal hemorrhage and an associated hematoma 
are uncommon but potentially serious complications 
following ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy. However, 
no reports of serious bleeding complications have been 
published regarding ureteroscopy without laser lithotripsy 
in the management of stone disease. We report of such a 
case here and then review the current literature in order 
to discuss the incidence, risk factors, and management 
of such events.
