Filter by:This is a prospective randomized double-blind controlled trial assessing the benefits of intramuscular ketorolac before or immediately after office ureteral stent removal.
The metabolic evaluation is crucial for determining possible underlying diseases causing stone growth and to consider the lifestyle changes or medical prophylaxis needed to prevent or at least reduce stone recurrence. 24-hour urine collection is the main part of the metabolic evaluation. The time point is suggested between 3 weeks and 3 month after stone removal, but so far there are no studies comparing 24-hour urine prior and after stone removal. In this study, investigators would like to analyze parameters in the 24-hour urine prior and after complete stone removal to see whether metabolic status can be evaluated no matter stone free or not.
This is a single arm, multi-center study to assess the safety and efficacy of a form of extracorporeal lithotripsy, called the Enhanced Lithotripsy System, to treat urinary stones.

Up-to-date, urology guidelines introduce safety guidewire (SGW) as an integral tool in ureteroscopy and recommended its routine use. However, the necessity of SGW placement in endourological procedures lack evidence and is being suggested as an expert opinion. Present study aimed to evaluate the use of SGW placement and its necessity in treatment of ureteral stones with semi-rigid ureteroscopy (s-URS). For this purpose patients with ureteral stones are being stratified according to ureteral stone location and prospectively randomized into two groups' according to SGW usage or not in s-URS. Ureteroscopy and litotripsy is being done with a semi-rigid ureteroscope of 6.4/7.8 Fr (Olympus) and laser. Chi-square and student t-test were used for comparing data.
The incidence of nephrolithiasis in children has been reported to increase by approximately 6-10% annually, and the incidence is currently 50 per 100,000 children with high recurrent rate. Investigators aimed to determine the metabolic risk factors in Chinese children through metabolic evaluation. In order to identify diagnostic criteria of hypocitraturia and hyperoxaluria in western country wether adapt to Chinese children, investigators aim to determine normal urine levels of oxalate and citrate in children without kidney stone.
