Objectives: To assess the effect of irrigation settings and size ureteral access sheath (UAS) on maximal intra-pelvic pressure (IPPmax) during ureteroscopy (URS) in pigs. Materials Methods: In supine position, three anesthetized female pigs underwent cystoscopy to insert a 6F catheter each ureter. Pigs were then turned prone position establish percutaneous access, 10F nephrostomy tube kidney, connect it urodynamic device. An 8F semi-rigid ureteroscope or Flex-X2 Flexible Ureteroscope was...
