Stent timing may impact kidney stone surgery outcomes
NCT ID NCT07052188
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 210 adults who had kidney stone surgery (RIRS) to see if placing a stent before the procedure helped clear stones completely and reduced the need for a second surgery. Researchers compared how long the stent was left in before surgery. The goal is to find the best timing to improve success and lower complications.
