Assessment of anatomical outcomes in the upper urinary tract following flexible ureteroscopy with flexible and navigable suction ureteral access sheath: 1-year results from a multicentre study. [PDF]

BJUI Compass
Abstract Introduction Flexible and navigable suction access sheath (FANS) with flexible ureterorenoscopy (FURS) has demonstrated favourable 30‐day and 3‐month outcomes for renal stones in normal anatomy. We aimed to investigate the long‐term 1‐year safety and efficacy of FANS for renal and ureteric stones in normal or anomalous anatomy.
