🚨 New publication in Urolithiasis 🚨

Most surgeons look at a urine dipstick and ask:

"Is this patient infected?"

Our data suggest a different question:

"Can this dipstick tell me whether the pre-laser renal pelvic culture will be negative?"

During ureteroscopy:

✅ NPV 96.7% for pre-laser renal pelvic urine culture
✅ Immediate result
✅ Available 24–48 hours before culture results
Why is that important?
Pre-laser culture positivity was associated with:

🔺 6× higher odds of postoperative infection
🔺 9× higher odds of sepsis

A negative pre-laser dipstick may provide real-time reassurance while awaiting the culture result that matters most.

The dipstick is a rule-out test for culture positivity.
It is not a rule-in test for infection.

Working Channel position can affect the outcome of #RIRS especially in difficult anatomy and lower pole stones.
✅ Combination of proper scope and “Microrotation” movement with non dominant hand can significantly enhance the successful access !

📢 Proud to share our new publication in Journal of Endourology. @CaseUrology
In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we compared ECIRS vs PCNL for complex kidney stones.
ECIRS showed higher stone-free rates and fewer major complications.

VES is a novel robotic surgical system that allows transurethral ERBT. The concentric tube design of the instrument arms allows controllable manipulation at a small diameter of ~1mm. This is extremely crucial to allow a two-handed surgery w/o obscuring the endoscopic view. (2/n)
