Consultation on kidney stones, Copenhagen 2019: aspects of intracorporeal lithotripsy in flexible ureterorenoscopy

Soren Kissow Lildal et al.

Summary: Intracorporeal laser lithotripsy in flexible ureterorenoscopy is widely used for stone management, with Holmium laser technology being predominant. The introduction of Thulium fibre laser may improve efficiency. Tailoring laser settings and lithotripsy strategies to individual stone characteristics is crucial for optimal outcomes, while further research on technology for removing stone dust and controlling intrarenal pressures and temperatures is needed to enhance safety.

What Do We Mean by Stone Free, and How Accurate Are Urologists in Predicting Stone-Free Status Following Ureteroscopy?

Oyvind Ulvik et al.

Summary: There is no consensus on how stone-free rates (SFRs) should be reported after stone treatment. This study found that different definitions of stone-free status (SFS) have a significant impact on SFRs. Urologists are overly optimistic in predicting their patients' stone-free status, and a standard definition of SFS as no fragments detected on CT 3 months after the URS procedure is recommended for future studies.

Clinical Comparison of Super Pulse Thulium Fiber Laser and High-Power Holmium Laser for Ureteral Stone Management

Alexey G. Martov et al.

Summary: The study findings suggest that the new super pulse thulium fiber laser (SP TFL) has shorter operation time, higher stone-free rate, and fewer postoperative complications in ureterolithotripsy than holmium laser.

Understanding Ureteral Access Sheath Use Within a Statewide Collaborative and Its Effect on Surgical and Clinical Outcomes

Kristen Meier et al.

Summary: This study investigated patterns of ureteral access sheath (UAS) use during ureteroscopy (URS) and associated outcomes across practices in Michigan. The results showed that UAS usage varied greatly across practices, with increased odds of postoperative emergency department visits and hospitalizations, as well as decreased odds of being stone free.

How to evaluate a flexible ureterorenoscope? Systematic mapping of existing evaluation methods

Nora Hendriks et al.

Summary: This study identified five key parameters for grading flexible ureterorenoscopes: Manoeuvrability, Optics, Irrigation, Handling, and Durability. However, within these categories, a wide variety of measurement methods were found. A standardized, uniform grading tool is needed for assessing and comparing the quality of flexible ureterorenoscopes in the future.

Current status of thulium fibre laser lithotripsy: an up-to-date review

Patrick Jones et al.

Summary: Initial clinical studies show that thulium fiber laser (TFL) appears to be effective in stone lithotripsy, particularly in the settings of URS and mini-PCNL. However, further randomized trials are needed to clarify its formal position and determine the optimal settings for clinical practice.
