Flexible ureteroscopy with a flexible and navigable suction ureteral access sheath versus mini‐percutaneous nephrolithotomy for 1–2 cm lower pole renal stones: Protocol for an international, multicentre, randomized non‐inferiority trial (FLAME trial)

BJUI Compass, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
