Use of the Moses Technology to Improve Holmium Laser Lithotripsy Outcomes: A Preclinical Study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Among patients with renal insufficiency secondary to autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), the onset of refractory urinary infection, hypertension, pain, or hematuria often necessitates a nephrectomy. However, the huge size of these kidneys makes a standard laparoscopic approach difficult, an...
