We developed a scoring system predicting radiation exposure during a RIRS session. Give a try on our website; rirsearch.com/fluroscopy-sco…

⚠️ 6 Fr (compared to 4.8) preoperative double j stent seems more hopeful to be able to plan a future RIRS session with an ureteral access sheath said one of our recent studies.

Ureter is not for the stones passing, ureteroscopes or access sheats, it is solely for the urine, our most recent study said. Non-virgin ureters were associated with higher periop. complication rate, longer hospital stays and increased need for auxiliary treatments during RIRS.

Hot off the press!! Can we predict post-RIRS fever? Yes! Here are the risk factors; 👉 Longer operation times 👉 High BMI 👉 High preop. systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) (PxN/L) 👉High platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), 👉Urine leukocyte positivity

We will be present at the #EAU25 with studies pursuing the answers of questions that are still valid in daily #RIRS practice; 👉 What happens to residual stones? 👉 What is the ideal timing for preop. urine culture? 👉 What strategy should be adopted with blood thinners?

First study comparing TFL vs high-power Ho:YAG laser in same-sitting bilateral RIRS for renal stones shows TFL's superior SFR and comparable safety. BSS-RIRS now achievable in carefully selected cases! @um_urology @DocGauhar @D_Castellani @drragoori @steffiyuen @migokce @endouro

Which step of RIRS do you use fluoroscopy the most?
45% UAS placement
15% Locating stone/residuals
5% Imaging anatomy
35% Jj stenting

“No retirement for reusable flexible scopes, they should work till their death” said our latest study which comparing the early and late cases with the same scope. All 5 scopes had been used around 100 cases (per scope) before they were completely broken.
