NCT05921370

Brief Summary

Selective alpha-blockers have been used for the treatment of ureteric stones as medical expulsive therapy (MET). Recently they have been successfully used in passive ureteric dilatation before semirigid ureteroscopy. This study enables us to know the role of silodosin in ureteric dilatation to facilitate ureteral access sheath placement in Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery with flexible ureteroscopy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • ureteric access sheath placement

    to assess the success of ureteric access sheath placement as follows: 1\. Direct assessment: A. Success of ureteric access sheath insertion without ureteric dilatation. B. Success of ureteric access sheath insertion with ureteric dilatation. C. Failed ureteric access sheath insertion.

    intraoperative immediate diagnosis, at the beginning of surgery.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • operative time

    intraoperative diagnosis during the surgery from beginning of the surgery till the end of the procedure

  • Perioperative complication

    till 7 days postoperative

  • Cost analysis

    1 day post operative

Study Arms (2)

Silodosin group (the intervention group)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive silodosin 8 mg one tablet per day for 7 days before their scheduled retrograde intrarenal surgery.

Drug: Silodosin 8 mg

Placebo group (the control group)

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients will receive Placebo for 7 days before their scheduled retrograde intrarenal surgery.

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

This prospective study will be conducted on patients prepared for Retrograde intrarenal surgery presented to Ain Shams University Hospital. Patients will be randomized with 1:1 ratio into 2 equal groups. Group A (the study group): Patients will receive silodosin 8 mg one tablet per day for 7 days before their scheduled retrograde intrarenal surgery. silodosin is an alpha blocker which act to dilate the ureter to facilitate access sheath placement
