Objective: To assess the degree of psychological impact among surgical providers during COVID-19 pandemic. Summary Background Data: The pandemic has extensively impacted global healthcare systems. We hypothesized that would be higher for deployed work, certain specialties, and those who knew someone diagnosed with, or died, COVID-19. Methods: conducted a web-based survey to investigate primary outcomes were depression anxiety stress scale-21 Impact Event Scale-Revised scores. Results: A...
Abstract Purpose To assess the 30-day stone-free rate and peri-operative outcomes of flexible ureteroscopy (FURS) with navigable suction ureteral access sheaths (FANS) in adults undergoing same-sitting bilateral retrograde intrarenal surgery (SSB-RIRS). Methods Prospectively data 115 adult patients kidney stone disease SSB-RIRS across 14 global centers between July 2023 March 2024 were analyzed. Patient demographics, characteristics operative recorded. A low-dose non contrast CT scan was...
To evaluate the perioperative outcomes of retrograde intra-renal surgery (RIRS) for lower pole stones (LPS) and factors affecting stone-free rate (SFR).Data from 20 centers were retrospectively reviewed. Inclusion criteria adult patients, normal renal anatomy, LPS. Exclusion bilateral surgery, concomitant ureteral stones. SFR was defined as a single residual fragment (RF) ≤ 2 mm evaluated 3-months after surgery. A multivariable logistic regression analysis performed to assess associated with...
We evaluated stone-free rate and complications after flexible ureteroscopy for renal stones, comparing thulium fiber laser holmium:YAG with MOSES technology.
The purpose of this study, is to find out the most accurate cut-off level for detrusor leak point pressure (DLPP) in terms upper urinary tract (UUT) protection a cohort children with myelodysplasia.One hundred and ninety-three myelodysplasia were included study based on availability urological evaluation at age 3 years. Children assigned one two groups-those who had UUT damage (group 1, n: 70) those without changes 2, 123), compared.Urological follow-up data revealed higher incidences...
Bilateral kidney stones are commonly treated in staged procedures.To evaluate outcomes after same-sitting bilateral retrograde intrarenal surgery (SSB-RIRS) for renal stones.Data from adults who underwent RIRS 21 centers were retrospectively reviewed (from January 2015 to June 2022). The inclusion criteria unilateral/bilateral symptomatic stone(s) of any size/location both kidneys and on follow-up with symptom/stone progression. Stone-free rate (SFR) was defined as absence fragment >3 mm at...
To evaluate the performance of Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT), a large language model trained by Open artificial intelligence.
Purpose: Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) requires urologists to adopt an awkward body posture for long durations. Few receive training in ergonomics despite the availability of ergonomic best practices utilized by other surgical specialties. We characterize practice patterns and rates musculoskeletal (MSK) pain among performing RIRS. Methods: A web-based survey was distributed through Endourological Society, European Association Urology, social media. Surgeon anthropometrics factors...
Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) is recommended as an alternative to percutaneous nephrolithotomy for stones up 2 cm. Pre-stenting before RIRS remains controversial with various studies differing in outcomes and recommendations. We aim understand how pre-stenting influences surgical outcomes.A number of 6579 patients from the TOWER group registry were divided into pre-stented (group 1) non-pre-stented groups 2). Patients aged ≥18 years old, normal calyceal anatomy enrolled. ureteric...
