Laser (TFL) technologies allow to pulverize urinary stones into fine particles, ie DUST. Yet …

Background: Success rates in endourological procedures, notably percutaneous
nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and ureteroscopy (URS), have demonstrated suboptimal outcomes …

Purpose: Residual stone fragments are common after percutaneous nephrolithotomy
(PCNL), however, there is an unclear relationship between the presence of these residual …

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of a novel negative pressure ureteroscopic
lithotripsy (NP-URL) compared to standard ureteroscopic lithotripsy (S-URL) for treating …

Purpose After treatment for kidney stones, residual fragments with a diameter of≤ 4 mm are
traditionally referred to as 'clinically insignificant residual fragments'. We hypothesize that …

Impacted proximal ureteral stones (IPUS) present challenging clinical scenarios due to their
persistent nature and associated complications. While ureterorenoscopy (URS) lithotripsy is …

Purpose: We sought to evaluate the technical feasibility of performing a combined robotically
assisted mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and flexible ureteroscopy (URS) …

This dissertation investigated the use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in a
hybrid operating room to detect residual stones during percutaneous nephrolithotomy …
