Study Arms (1)

Lithotripsy

EXPERIMENTAL

Ureteroscopy with lithotripsy using the Thulium Fiber Laser

Device: Thulium Fiber Laser

Interventions

Thulium Fiber Laser will be used to break renal stones \< 2 cm into fragments small enough to remove or pass spontaneously through the ureter.

Lithotripsy

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Solitary renal stone 8 to 20 mm in size or in the case of multiple stones the conglomerate diameter of 8-20 mm is required
  • Must be a suitable operative candidate for flexible ureteroscopy per urologic guidelines
  • Must be 18 years or older
  • Must be able to give consent
  • Bilateral ureteroscopy will be permitted but only the first side will be included in the study

You may not qualify if:

  • Concomitant stones in the ureter
  • Prior ipsilateral upper urinary tract reconstructive procedures or history of ipsilateral ureteral stricture
  • Prior radiotherapy to the abdomen or pelvis
  • Neurogenic bladder or spinal cord injury
