Safety and Efficacy of Fluoroscopy-free Technique During Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery for Renal Stones

Sponsor: Al-Azhar University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Aiming to reduce radiation exposure to patients and physicians, the investigators conduct this study protocol to evaluate the possibility of performing retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) under direct visualization without fluoroscopy. the investigators will prospectively evaluate the outcome of fluoroscopy-free RIRS for renal stones in comparison with the standard technique. The investigators expected that the fluoroscopy-free technique has high safety and efficacy even in complicated cases.
