Nanofluid‐Enhanced Laser Lithotripsy Using Conducting Polymer Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 48, December 29, 2025.
Incorporating polymeric nanoparticles, PEDOT:PSS, with a high near‐infrared absorption coefficient into the fluid significantly enhances the dusting efficiency of Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy for kidney stone treatment. This approach, which leverages the control of light‐matter interactions, integrates seamlessly with the current laser lithotripsy workflow.

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)

open access: yesBJUI Compass, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Background Lower pole renal stones measuring 1–2 cm remain challenging to treat. While mini‐percutaneous nephrolithotomy (mini‐PCNL) provides high stone‐free rates (SFRs), it carries tract‐related morbidity. Flexible ureteroscopy (f‐URS) is less invasive but limited in SFR.
