Официальное название
Comparative Study on the Efficacy of the Ureteral Access Sheath With Integrated Suction FANS Versus the Standard Sheath in Patients With Renal Calculi Undergoing Ureterorenoscopy and Laser Lithotripsy: a Prospective, Randomized, Interventional, Single-center Study
Обзор
This is a prospective, interventional single blinded, randomized, single-center study designed to compare the efficacy of a ureteral access sheath with integrated suction (FANS) versus a standard ureteral access sheath (UAS) in patients undergoing ureterorenoscopy and laser lithotripsy for renal stones. The hypothesis is that the use of the FANS device improves stone-free rates and reduces postoperative infectious complications compared to the standard sheath.
Подробное описание
Single-center, prospective, randomized, interventional, single blinded study. Participants with renal calculi undergoing ureterorenoscopy and laser lithotripsy will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either a standard ureteral access sheath (UAS) or the FANS (Flexible and Navigable Suction) sheath. Randomization will be stratified by stone characteristics, specifically stone density (≤1000 vs \>1000 HU) and stone volume (\<500 vs ≥500 mm³), as recorded on preoperative imaging, to reduce potential imbalance between study arms.
Вмешательства
- Устройство Standard ureteral access sheath
Participants undergo flexible ureterorenoscopy and laser lithotripsy using a standard ureteral access sheath according to institutional practice. - Устройство Flexible and Navigable Suction (FANS) Ureteral Access Sheath
The Flexible and Navigable Suction (FANS) ureteral access sheath (Elephant-II), which enables active suction during flexible ureterorenoscopy and laser lithotripsy.
Первичные конечные точки
- Radiological stone-free rate (absence of residual fragments >=4 mm) assessed by low-dose non-contrast CT scan [Срок оценки: Within 3 months (+/- 1 month) post-procedure]
Критерии участия
Критерии включения

- Male or female, aged 18 years or older.
- Diagnosed with renal calculi ≥5 mm in diameter, confirmed by imaging, and eligible for fURS with laser lithotripsy according to European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines.

Критерии исключения
- Solitary kidney (monorenal patients).
- Untreated positive urine culture or ongoing urinary tract infection not resolved with appropriate antibiotic therapy prior to surgery.
- Known anatomical abnormalities of the urinary tract that may interfere with ureteroscopic access or device placement (e.g., ureteral stricture, congenital malformations).
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding at the time of enrollment or planning pregnancy during the study period. In all female patients, a Gravindex test is performed on the day of admission; contraceptive measures are not required
- Concomitant ureteral stone
- Ureteral stenosis
- Known allergy or hypersensitivity to materials used in the investigational or control ureteral access sheath.
- Any severe comorbid condition (e.g., uncontrolled cardiovascular disease, severe coagulopathy, active malignancy) that in the opinion of the investigator would interfere with study participation or increase procedural risk.
- Any psychological, cognitive, or social condition that may limit the ability to provide informed consent or comply with follow-up procedures.
