Summary

This study tests a flexible scope with a vacuum attachment to remove large kidney stones (2-3 cm). The goal is to see if it clears stones better and lowers risks compared to standard methods. About 115 adults with normal kidney anatomy will take part.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
flexible ureteroscope with vacuum-assisted sheath
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a more effective and safer way to remove large kidney stones, reducing the need for additional procedures.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 115 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The procedure still carries risks like infection or injury.
