Özet
The purpose of this article is to identify the factors that predict the success of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS), with a focus on the effect of renal parenchymal thickness and anticoagulant use on stone-free rates. From February 2014 to April 2022, cases of kidney stones treated with RIRS at our clinic were retrospectively screened. The study included 642 cases meeting all inclusion and exclusion criteria. The patients who were observed to be stone free after a single session of RIRS were assigned to Group F, while those with residual fragments were assigned to Group R. Group F comprised 472 patients, while Group R included 170 patients. The two groups have compared certain preoperative and postoperative laboratory and radiological parameters. The infundibulopelvic angle was significantly more acute in Group R (45.63 ± 16.25 vs. 49.28 ± 15.36, p = 0.011) while patients in Group F tended to have …
