Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to compare the safety and efficacy between RIRS with tip flexible pressure-controlling ureteral access sheath and mini percutaneous nephrolithotripsy(PCNL) for the treatment of 2-3-cm kidney stones.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of BMN 255 and to learn about the effect BMN 255 has on you and your hyperoxaluria associated with NAFLD, and compare these effects with a placebo. The primary safety objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of daily oral doses of BMN 255 in adult participants with NAFLD and hyperoxaluria. The primary efficacy objective of the study is to assess 24-hour urine oxalate levels (24-hour urine collection corrected for BSA) following daily oral doses of BMN 255 in adult participants with NAFLD and hyperoxaluria.
Primary aim: comparing the efficacy of standard PCNL and endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery (ECIRS) in the Galdakao-modified Supine Valdivia (GMSV) position in a single session for the treatment of complex nephrolithiasis in obese patients. Secondary aim: comparing safety and complications of standard PCNL and ECIRS in the GMSV.
In this study, investigators aimed to compare the postoperative pain status and comfort situations depending on instruments used in the percutaneous nephrolithotomy operation
This study tests whether hydroxycitrate, a molecule closely related to citrate, can reduce calcium phosphate stone recurrence.
The purpose of this study is to compare two variations of the mini-PCNL procedure using either a vacuum-assisted sheath or standard sheath which are both used for the surgical treatment of kidney stones. Both procedure types are commonly used in the treatment of kidneys stones and they have been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of stones similar in size and location to your own.
Evaluation of Prevalence, Molecular and Genetic Backgrounds of Calcium-Based stones among Patients with Renal Calcular Disease in Mansoura Urology and Nephrology Center
This is a randomized control trial comparing oral ketorolac and opioid medication for the use of post-operative analgesia.
Flexible ureteroscopy is characterized as first-line therapy for renal stones < 2 cm in size. Stones are commonly treated with dusting or fragmentation techniques which requires passage of stone fragments after surgery. Quoted stone free rate after flexible ureteroscopy is approximately 40-60% with a dusting technique. Residual fragments are often under 1mm in size and can layer in the lower pole of the kidney, complicating spontaneous stone passage. Improving the stone free rate after surgery decreases the need for secondary surgeries and decreases risk of future stone events. Numerous techniques have been proposed to increase stone passage including positional changes and percussion therapy. To date, there is overall limited data a lack of techniques that can be readily available in the outpatient setting, easily added to scheduled appointments, reproducible results and well tolerated by patients.
This study will examine the effects of ureteroscopic lasing technique (dusting, fragmentation and a hybrid approach) on total lasing time and total energy in patients with a large renal calculi burden of single or multiple stones with the sum of its longest diameters between 10-20 mm and having mean Hounsfield units of 1000 or more.
