| To compare the long-term stone-free status of patients who underwent fragmentation of stones followed by active basketing versus stone dusting and spontaneous passage following flexible ureteroscopic treatment for lower calyceal stones. The dusting or fragmentation methods were randomly assigned to patients who were scheduled to undergo RIRS for only renal lower calyceal stones between February 2019 and May 2022, prospectively. Stone-free rates were determined after 3 months by non-contrast computed tomography and patient demography; preoperative and postoperative follow-up data of both groups were evaluated comparatively. While the fragmentation method was applied in 32 patients, the dusting method was applied in the remaining 31 cases. The two groups did not differ significantly regarding the demographic data and laboratory findings. Mean stone size was similar in both groups of cases … |
