Summary

This study looked at 130 people with ureteral stones to see if using a smaller or larger ureteroscope changes how well the stones are removed and how stressed the surgeon feels. Surgeons reported their anxiety levels before and after each procedure using a standard questionnaire. The goal is to find the best tool to make stone treatment easier for both patients and doctors.
