No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This prospective randomized clinical trial aimed to compare the difference in stone ablation rates of TFL and Ho:YAG laser in a clinical setting. Patients are randomized to receive URS with lithotripsy (URSL) either with TFL or Ho:YAG with an allocation ratio of 1:1. Primary outcome is the efficiency of stone ablation in terms of the stone ablation rate

Conditions

  • Ureteric Stone

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Ureteroscopic lithotripsy

Ureteroscopic lithotripsy is one of the surgical procedure options for ureteric stone less than 1.5 cm. While many energy systems has been used for stone fragmentation during ureteroscopy, laser energy is the most commonly used approach for stone fragmentation.
