Flexible urétéroscopy Versus Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy in Renal Calculi

Flexible ureteroscopy is a recent procedure to treat renal stone. Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy was the gold standard treatment for calculi between 5 and 20 mm. In literature, the two procedures are available to treat these stones with a good stone free rate. There is no prospective randomized study comparing these two treatments. Our study will define with a good level of evidence which technique is the best with regard to the stone free rate, secondary procedure rate and adverse effect.

Treatment and study plan

flexible ureteroscopy

Procedure

Flexible ureteroscopy will be use for 120 min max to treat renal stone. Laser, access sheath, baskets can be use to perform the technique.

extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy

Procedure

The lithotriptor is use with 1,1 Hz frequency and stop when patient get 1000 joules of energy or if there is a problem with tolerance of this treatment or if stone is broken

Primary outcomes

  1. Stone free rate

    Time frame: Three months

    Rate of stone free patient or patient with residual fragment ≤ 3 mm, 3 months after the treatment evaluated, will be compare. This outcome is measured with a tomodensitometry and compares with pre treatment exams.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Stone free rate in weight's sub group

    Time frame: 3 months

    Each arm wil be divise in 3 sub group based on body mass index (20 to 25, 25 to 30, 30 to 35). We'll compare rate of efficacity in each sub group

  2. Stone free rate in sub group depending on stone diameters

    Time frame: 3 months

    Each arm wil be divise in 3 sub group based on calculi diameter (5 to 10mm, 10 to 15 and 15 to 20). We'll compare rate of efficacity in each sub group

  3. Secondary procedure rate

    Time frame: 3 months

    In each arm will be evaluate rate of secondary procedure needed to have the best stone free rate

  4. Serious and non serious adverse events

    Time frame: 3 months

    In each arm will be evaluate rate of adverse event, type, severity.
