Second-look flexible ureteroscopy after RIRS – Holmium Moses versus TFL (Soltive)
Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) is nowadays more and more indicated in pyelocaliceal stones. Holmium and Thulium lasers are the main lasers used. Fragmenting (basketing) or dusting, despite the new technology, still have residual stones (even having
