Does a Ureteral Stent with a Smaller Diameter Reduce Stent-Related Bladder Irritation? A Single-Blind, Randomized, Controlled, Multicenter Study.

abstract：:A new tip design of a 3.3F electrohydraulic probe for endoureteral lithotripsy was evaluated in comparison to a regular probe. The peak pressure, as well as the slope of the shock front, depend solely on the voltage. Increasing the capacity leads merely to broader pulses. A laser-like short high-pressure pulse has a g...
