Is emergency ureteroscopy justified in presence of infection or sepsis.

We read with interest the article by Bakr and Abdelhalim, who conducted this rather bold study of evaluating the safety and efficacy of emergency ureteroscopy in patients presenting with mild sepsis [1]. Although the authors report good results in this clinical setting, we do have some reservations to the basic concept of this study and feel that ureteroscopy should not be performed in setting of known urinary infection, and surely not in presence of sepsis.
