Filter by:The purpose of this research study is to compare how well two treatments work for removing kidney stones. The two study groups include ureteroscopy with long/short pulse lithotripsy to remove kidney stones. Both of these options are considered standard of care and are used currently in surgery.
Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) with flexible ureteroscopy is based on video monitoring of urinary tract during operation. Therefore, shaking vision on monitor can bother surgeons and make them tired. This can lead in tissue injury from lasing. The purpose of this study is to investigate the stability of monitoring of surgical field which is assessed by surgeon.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether one of two ureteral access sheaths is safer for patients undergoing ureteroscopy. Both sheaths are FDA approved devices and commercially available. The investigators will compare the ability of sheaths to access the kidney through the ureter and will compare damage done to the ureter after completion of the procedure. Access sheaths are standard of care for this procedure; this study seeks to optimize outcomes for patients. Patients undergoing ureteroscopy who do not have ureteral stents in place and who have not had an ipsilateral procedure within 90 days will be recruited and consented.
The objective of the this study was to examine the amount and duration of tea consumption in relation to the risk of renal stone disease.
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a minimally invasive procedure considered as the treatment of choice for the management of large-scale and fully-formed kidney stones.This procedure has a 5% risk of complications including bleeding, the lesion of the collecting system, the risk of urinary infection and bacteremia. New surgical tools such as dilatation of the nephrostomy tract with mechanical dilatation contribute to the reduction of these risks, together with an improvement in the operative times and a lower rate of complications. At present there are multiple scales measuring the lithiasic morphology (Guy, the STONE nephrolitometry score system and the nomogram of the Office of Clinical Investigation of the Endourology Society - CROES) which allow to evaluate the degree of complexity of the stone, the possibility of residual stones and the risk of complications. These tools allow us to do a better analysis of the risk factors of the patient who will be taken to this type of endoscopic procedure in order to decrease morbidity and complication rates. Hypothesis: The use of pneumatic dilators during percutaneous nephrolithotomy reduces the rates of intraoperative and postoperative complications, which would have an impact on hospitalization times and surgical success for the management of renal stone.
Prospectively randomized study in patients with renal pelvic stones who are candidate to standard PCNL procedure. One to one, controlled clinical trial. Patients will be randomly allocated into two groups, 20 patients in each group. Group A will be scheduled to receive routine standard PCNL. Group B will be scheduled to receive Robot assisted pyelolethotomy.
We want to compare the effect of lignocaine 2 % gel, Naproxen sodium and their combination on the pain control during extracorporial shock wave lithotripsy for renal stones.
The objective of this research is to investigate the surgical outcomes of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy(MPCNL) and retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS)for patients with renal stone larger than 1cm.
