Official Title: A Comparative Study Between Ultra Mini Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy Versus Stented Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy for Treatment of Renal Stones in Egypt
Brief Summary:
Nephrolithiasis is the third most common disease of the urinary tract. As minimally invasive technologies develop, shock wave lithotripsy (SWL), retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS), and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) are different surgeries to treat renal stones.Aim of the Study is to compare results, safety and outcome of Ultra mini PCNL versus stented extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) for the management of renal calculi from 10 - 20 mm. Patients were randomized to either Ultra-Mini-Percutaneous…
