Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery Versus Mini Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy
Sponsor: South Valley University
Summary
Pediatric nephrolithiasis accounts for approximately 2-3% of all stone disease cases, with recent reports indicating a rising prevalence of up to 10.6%. This increasing incidence poses a growing public health concern. The primary objective in managing pediatric renal stones is complete stone clearance while minimizing complications and improving the patient's quality of life.
