The benefits of sodium‐glucose transport protein 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) use on severe urolithiasis requiring surgery remains unclear. All patients with incident T2D in Taiwan National Health Institution databases (2016–2021) and TriNetX datasets (2014–2023) were retrospectively analyzed.

ABSTRACT Recently, urological surgery has undergone remarkable technological advances and these new technologies are being adapted to a wide array of medical fields. Robotic‐assisted laparoscopic procedures are not limited to radical prostatectomy, but include partial nephrectomy, pyeloplasty, radical cystectomy, and more.

ABSTRACT Introduction Surgical clips used in laparoscopic and robot‐assisted surgeries can occasionally migrate into the upper urinary tract, serving as nidi for stone formation. We report a case of a surgical clip‐induced renal stone successfully treated with ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL) following laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN).

Adverse Reactions to Urinary Contrast: A Case Report and Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Objective Intra‐urinary iodinated contrast agents are commonly used in urological procedures, but research of allergic reactions is rare. This study presents a rare case of an intra‐urinary contrast reaction, followed by a comprehensive literature review of adverse reactions to intra‐urinary contrast.

Non papillary mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy: early experience
Purpose This study aims to evaluate the non-papillary puncture for mini-PCNL in terms of safety and efficacy. Methods A total number of 32 patients were subjected to mini-PCNL by the performance of non-papillary punctures over 6 months.

This scheme illuminates the high simulation training system for spinal full‐endoscopic surgery. The model may be used by surgeons starting with spinal endoscopy and should be considered as a comparable and sufficiently realistic tool to train key operation steps to reduce the learning curve.

Renal parenchymal volume analysis: Clinical and research applications
Abstract Background and Objectives In most patients, the renal parenchymal volumes in each kidney directly correlate with function and can be used as a proxy to determine split renal function (SRF). This simple principle forms the basis for parenchymal volume analysis (PVA) with semiautomated software, which can be leveraged to predict SRF and new ...

New instrumentation in percutaneous nephrolithotomy
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the procedure of choice for removing large, complex, and/or multiple renal calculi. Since its first description in 1976, PCNL techniques and equipment have evolved to maximize procedural efficacy, safety, and reproducibility.
