Measurement and comparison of intrarenal pressures during retrograde intrarenal surgery using novel flexible ureteroscopes with integrated direct in-scope suction: An experimental ex vivo study
For the first time in experimental studies we noted that irrigation through a wider 5.1 Fr working channel raises the baseline IRP faster than the classic 3.6 Fr working channel. Although these findings should be further investigated in a clinical setting, they should be taken into consideration to select the optimal strategy, to keep IRP at safe levels, and avoid complications.
