About this study

Official title: Role Of Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery In Management Of Renal Stones: Single Center Experience

Role Of Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery In Management Of Renal Stones: Single Center Experience

Read the detailed description

With the advancements in endourologic technology, in the last 30 years, renal stone treatment has dramatically changed, and minimally invasive treatments options, such as extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL), percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), mini-PCNL, retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) or laparoscopy, have replaced open surgery.

Although, minimally invasive treatment modalities have an excellent stone fragmentation rate, the clearance of stone fragments may not be immediate and can occur for any time after the intervention.

The European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines, recommends PCNL for renal stones greater than 2 cm, and SWL is suggested primarily for stones less than 1 cm in size. Although SWL, RIRS and PCNL are all presented as treatment options for renal stones between, which application is a matter of preference.

The treatment modality selection of renal stones usually depends on stone-related factors (location, size, and composition), clinical factors (patient's comorbidities, patient's compliance, solitary kidney, and abnormal anatomy), and technical factors (equipment available for treatment, success rates, possible complications, invasiveness, the need for anesthetics, hospitalization times, and costs).

PCNL can achieve better results but is more invasive, is associated with greater morbidity and complications, and may be reserved for selected circumstances.

Stone clearance following kidney stone treatment is not well defined. For lower pole stones, Sener and colleagues compared RIRS with SWL and reported a stone-free rate of 52.3% with patients treated using RIRS one week after treatment. However after three months, the stone-free rate improved to 100%.

Ureteroscopic lithotripsy has been the most widely applied treatment for urinary tract stones, with high success and low complication rates. The holmium laser has facilitated the disintegration of stones and increased the effectiveness of ureteroscopic lithotripsy.

Improvements in the new generation of flexible ureteroscopes have made retrograde endoscopic ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy for renal calculi more popular. The overall success rates of retrograde intrarenal surgery have been reported as 75% to 95% for intrarenal stones > 2 cm after the first or second treatment, whereas the major and minor complication rates vary from 1.5% to 12%, which are less frequent than rates in PCNL procedures.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ureteroscope in people with Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery In Management Of Renal Stones, run by Menoufia University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mohammed A Abdelghaffar, Bachelor (01555950089 ext. Menoufia, mohammed20207501@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

stone free rates and complications (time frame: Up to 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jan 2023.
