Kidney stone patients may ditch painful stent, new study hopes

NCT ID NCT05866081

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether it is safe and less painful to skip placing a temporary tube (stent) after routine kidney stone removal. About 792 adults with small stones will either get a stent or not, and researchers will track pain and any unplanned doctor visits. The goal is to see if omitting the stent leads to a better recovery without increasing complications.
