Evaluation of postoperative safety and comfort of ureteral stent removal with extraction string in modified split-leg prone percutaneous nephrolithotomy
The use of extraction-string ureteral stents during modified split-leg prone PCNL significantly reduces stent removal pain, enhances procedural convenience, lowers economic burden, and maintains a safety profile comparable to traditional methods. This innovative technique represents a clinically valuable advancement in PCNL surgery.
