The management of residual fragments (RFs) that persist after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has been poorly studied. Fragments have the potential to grow or cause symptoms. aim this study was follow patients with PCNL identify predictors stone-related events (re-interventions and complications) PCNL.Data were retrospectively collected from who underwent surgery 2008 2013 at our hospital.

Background: Residual fragments (RFs) after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) have a significant impact on patients' quality of life and clinical course. There is paucity studies that evaluate the natural history RFs PCNL. The objective this study to compare rates reintervention, complications, stone growth, passage in patients with >4, ≤4, ≤2 mm Methods: Sites from Endourologic Disease Group for Excellence (EDGE) research consortium examined data PCNL 2015 2019 at least 1-year follow-up....
Introduction: Hybrid guidewires are commonly used in urology due to the advantage of an atraumatic hydrophilic tip, which facilitates negotiating tight areas, coupled with unkinkable nitinol core shaft that is easy work over Teflon coating. Our aim was compare physical and mechanical properties five commercially available hybrid assess their characteristics functionality. Methods: In vitro testing performed on following straighttipped 0.035 inch guidewires: Sensor™ (Boston Scientific), Solo™...
