Summary
This study tested whether taking tamsulosin or silodosin before kidney stone surgery helps doctors insert a tube into the ureter more easily and reduces damage to the ureter. 140 adults with small kidney stones were involved. Results showed that those who took the medication had a higher success rate for tube insertion and less ureter injury, especially in patients over 59 or with a BMI over 25.
