Duration Between Drainage and Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Renal Stone; Ureter Stone; Ureteric Obstruction

• Registration Number: NCT06101563
• Lead Sponsor: Mansoura University

Brief Summary

This study will be conducted to compare early (seven days) versus delayed (14-21 days) definitive ureteroscopic lithotripsy after initial drainage for obstructing ureteral or renal stones associated with infection.

Detailed Description

All the study participants will be monitored during the early post-operative period for post-operative pain and complications. The rate and grade of reported complications will be determined according to modified Dindo-Clavian grading system. After ensuring safe status for discharge, all patients will be reassessed at the outpatient department after 4 weeks by NCCT to assess stone free status.
