Outcomes of Mini‐Endoscopic Combined Intrarenal Surgery in the Geriatric Population: A Matched‐Pair Analysis
To the best of our knowledge, this multicenter cohort study is the first to compare the efficacy and safety of the mini-ECIRS between older patients and other groups. It was discovered that surgery could be performed with a similar quality even in patients aged 75 and older compared to that in other groups.
