Longer‐term effects of intraoperative cone‐beam computed tomography in percutaneous nephrolithotomy: 18‐month retrospective randomised controlled trial analysis

BJU International, Volume 136, Issue 5, Page 848-857, November 2025.
Objectives To assess the longer‐term impact of intraoperative cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) on stone‐related morbidity after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), since intraoperative CBCT allows for the detection and removal of residual fragments during the same procedure, improving stone clearance and thereby potentially diminishing stone ...

Management of retained encrusted urethral catheter with extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy

Indian Journal of Urology, 2002
We report a case of non-deflating heavily encrusted Foley catheter successfully removed by extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL). To our knowledge this is the first case of using ESWL to remove encrusted foley catheter retained in the bladder.

Comparing laser vs mechanical lithotripsy in suction mini‐PCNL for kidney stone disease: A prospective multicentre study by the endourology section of EAU

BJUI Compass, Volume 6, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Objectives To compare perioperative outcomes, complications and stone‐free rates (SFRs) between laser and non‐laser lithotripsy in suction‐assisted mini‐PCNL (SM‐PCNL). Subjects and Methods This prospective multicentre study enrolled adults with normal kidneys undergoing SM‐PCNL (14–22 Fr) across 30 international centres (March–November 2024).

Long‐Term Complications of Neglected Double‐J Stent With Renal and Bladder Stone Formation: A Case Report From Sudan

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Double‐J (DJ) stents are commonly used to maintain ureteral patency after procedures like ureteral stone removal. Ideally, they should be replaced or removed within 6 to 12 weeks to avoid complications such as encrustation and stone formation. However, prolonged retention can lead to severe outcomes. This case report discusses a patient with a

Ureteral stent symptoms: A systematic review and meta‐analysis comparing the use of mirabegron and tamsulosin

BJUI Compass, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Background Ureteral stent insertion, crucial for managing ureteral obstructions, often results in stent‐related symptoms (SRSs) adversely affecting patient quality of life. This meta‐analysis compares the effectiveness of tamsulosin or mirabegron versus placebo in alleviating these symptoms.
