The benefits of PCNL combined with ureterorenoscopy compared to isolated PCNL in urolithiasis (PRECISE): a multicentre randomised controlled trial protocol

open access: yesBJU International, Volume 137, Issue 1, Page 76-86, January 2026.
Background Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) often fails to achieve complete stone clearance with a single procedure. Residual fragments, irrespective of size, are associated with increased stone‐related morbidity and a higher likelihood of re‐intervention.
