-
Mini‑PCNL versus flexible ureteroscopy with a suction sheath for 2–3 cm kidney stones
This tests whether mini‑PCNL or flexible ureteroscopy with a suction sheath better clears 2–3 cm kidney stones and leads to fewer complications in adults.
-
Evaluating a new patient position for kidney stone surgery
This study is testing if a new way of positioning patients during kidney stone surgery can help them get rid of stones more effectively than the usual position.
-
Effect of surgical position on kidney stone removal success
This study tests whether changing the way patients are positioned during kidney stone surgery can help doctors remove stones more successfully and with fewer complications.
-
Using 3D imaging to improve kidney stone surgery training
This study is testing if using 3D imaging can help doctors learn to perform kidney stone surgery better for patients with larger stones.
-
Improving kidney stone clearance after surgery with home exercises
This study tests if doing specific exercises at home can help people pass kidney stones more easily after surgery.
-
Self-posturotherapy to clear leftover fragments after lower-pole kidney stone treatment
This trial will test whether a simple home posturotherapy technique helps people treated with extracorporeal lithotripsy or flexible ureteroscopy for lower-pole kidney stones get rid of remaining fragments over three months.
-
Exploring the link between kidney stones, insulin resistance, and inflammation
This study is trying to see if people with kidney stones have more belly fat and inflammation compared to healthy individuals, to better understand how these factors are linked.
-
Comparing stent placement versus omission after kidney stone treatment
This study is testing whether putting in a stent after kidney stone treatment helps patients feel better and need fewer extra doctor visits compared to not using a stent at all.
