Predicting Stone-free Status based on Quadruple-D and Triple-D Scores after Extracorporeal Shock-Wave Lithotripsy and Comparing With Broad-Spectrum Population
CONCLUSIONS: The Quadruple-D score is at least as successful as the Triple-D score in predicting SWL success.PMID:38479426 | DOI:10.1055/a-2266-3564 (Source: Aktuelle Urologie)

Total intracorporeal laparoscopic ileal ureter replacement in a single position for ureteral stricture based on membrane anatomy
The aim of this study was to present our initial experience and prove the feasibility of total intracorporeal laparoscopic ileal ureter replacement (TILIUR) in a single position for ureteral stricture based on... (Source: BMC Surgery)

Ureteral wall thickness as a predictor for non-invasive treatment success for steinstrasse. Can we save time?
ConclusionUreteral wall thickness is an important factor predicting SS management success. Besides the decreased UWT, non-invasive management should be offered for type I SS with leading stone ≤ 10 mm. (Source: World Journal of Urology)

Transient ureteral obstruction after mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy is associated with stone volume and location: results from a single-center, real-life study
ConclusionOne out of five patients showed transient ureteral obstruction after mPCNL. Patients with a higher stone burden and with stones in the renal pelvis are at higher risk of inadequate ureteral canalization. Internal drainage might be considered in these cases to avoid potential complications. (Source: World Journal of Urology)

Construction and validation of the nomogram predictive model for post-percutaneous nephrolithotomy urinary sepsis
ConclusionPreoperative positive urine culture, positive urinary nitrite, operative time ≥ 120 min, and stone size ≥ 30 mm are independent risk factors for developing post-PCNL urinary sepsis. The constructed line chart based on these factors effectively assesses the risk of urinary sepsis in patients after PCNL. (Source: World Journal of Urology)

Clinical efficacy of laparoscopic Lich –Gregoir versus transvesicoscopic Cohen reimplantation for ureterobladder junction malformations in children
ConclusionBoth LLGO and TCRO were demonstrated to be precise, safe, and reliable surgical methods for treating pediatric VUJO and VUR. LLGO ureteral reimplantation offers particular advantages in selecting cases and appears more suitable for children younger than 12 months who have a small bladder capacity.

Turning up the HEAT: Surgical simulation of the Moses 2.0 laser in an anatomic model
CONCLUSIONS: Laser energy and frequency play an important role in the thermal loads delivered during laser lithotripsy. Urologists must perform laser lithotripsy cautiously when aggressively treating large renal pelvis stones, as dangerous temperatures can be reached. To reduce the risk of causing thermal tissue injury, urologists should consider reducing their ODC and laser-on time.PMID:38466866 | DOI:10.5489/cuaj.8673 (Source: Canadian Urological Association Journal)

Improved stone quality of life in patients with an obstructing ureteral stone on alpha-blocker medical expulsive therapy
ConclusionsThe use of MET was associated with improved QOL on all WISQOL metrics compared to noMET patients. Improved stone QOL may be an indication of alpha-blocker therapy in patients with ureteral stone colic. (Source: International Urology and Nephrology)
