The Association of a Number of Anatomical Factors with the Success of Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery in Lower Calyceal Stones.

Abstract

In our study we found that IPA, PCH and stone size were significant anatomical factors affecting RIRS success in the treatment of renal lower calyx stones. The patients whose IPA, PCH and stone size valuables are unsuitable, may need multiple RIRS sessions or additionaltreatment modalities.
