ABSTRACT Objectives Chronic painless urine retention (CUR) with > 1 liter of postvoid residual urine (PVR) is a rare but serious complication of benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of HoLEP in men with chronic painless urinary retention and PVR volumes exceeding 1 l. Methods We retrospectively reviewed data from

Flexible and navigable suction access sheaths: what size stone particles can be cleared?
Objectives To perform benchtop experiments on flexible and navigable suction (FANS) ureteric access sheaths (UASs) to determine the clearance capabilities for various stone sizes when paired with different‐sized ureteroscopes. Methods Quartz stones were used as a surrogate for renal stones.

Experimental stone clearance with in‐scope suction and flexible and navigable suction access sheaths
Objective To perform benchtop experiments using direct in‐scope suction (DISS) ureteroscopes (Pusen Medical, Zhuhai, China; 3.6‐Ch and 5.1‐Ch working channels) and flexible and navigable suction (FANS) ureteric access sheaths (ClearPetra; Wellead, Guangzhou, China) to establish their ability to clear stones of different diameters.

Flexible and navigable suction access sheaths: balancing sheath and scope size for desired flows
Objective To study the effects of ureteroscope diameter, ‘flexible and navigable suction’ access sheaths (FANS) diameter, and irrigation pressure on intrarenal pressure (IRP) and irrigation fluid flow rates in ex vivo porcine kidneys; these benchtop data were compared against mathematical modelling results.
