Clinical Trial Summary

Objectives: To present the outcomes of retrograde and antegrade ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy in the treatment of proximal ureteral stones ranging in size from 10 to 20 millimeters in diameter. Patients and methods: From March 2023 to December 2023, 70 patients were included in this prospective randomized double-arm interventional study. Patients were divided into two groups: Group 1: (35 patients) had semi-rigid retrograde ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy and group 2: (35 patients) had semi-rigid antegrade ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy.


Clinical Trial Description

The present study was conducted in Al-Azhar University Hospital (Damietta branch), urology department,at the period from March 2023 to December 2023. Seventy patients with symptomatic proximal medium sized ureteric stones were classified in two groups Retrograde Uretroscopic Laser Lithotripsy (group 1) and Antegrade Ureteroscopic Laser Lithotripsy (group 2) . The preoperative-(patient- and stone-related), intraoperative- and postoperative- related parameters that might influence the perioperative course and short-term clinical outcomes were evaluated. ;
