J Endourol. 2007 Dec;21(12):1497-9. doi: 10.1089/end.2006.0469.

Abstract

We report the ureteroscopic unroofing of a symptomatic peripelvic cyst with a holmium laser in a 37-year-old woman. At 1-year follow-up, the patient remains symptom free. Endoscopic management of peripelvic cysts is durable and can be performed safely.
