A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational, international, multicenter cohort study aims to collect clinical data on patients with urinary stones undergoing Endoscopic Combined Intrarenal Surgery (ECIRS) across various centers in Asia. It will gather baseline demographic information, symptoms, risk factors, and laboratory variables, as well as treatment details and perioperative outcomes. Follow-up data will be collected for up to three months post-surgery to analyze patterns of presentation and treatment effectiveness. The study seeks to enhance understanding of ECIRS outcomes in the context of renal stone management.
