Double-j (DJ) ureteral stenting is a very common procedure performed after various endourological procedures. Although several complications due to DJ stent insertion were revealed, only three cases of renal parenchymal perforation have been reported to date. We present a case of a 35-year-old woman who had perforation of renal parenchyma without perirenal hematoma following insertion of DJ ureteral stent after flexible ureteroscopy for the treatment of an upper ureteral calculi. Non-contrast computed tomography was used for diagnosis. Patient was successfully managed with repositioning of the stent under fluoroscopic guidance on postoperative second day postoperatively.

Department of Urology, The University of Hong Kong - Shenzhen Hospital, Shenzhen, Guangdong, China.
BACKGROUND Transplant lithiasis may be rare but poses significant risk to the renal graft function of the recipient. Immediate management is necessitated upon first detection, to prevent further complications. CASE REPORT We report 2 cases of transplant lithiasis that were not treated immediately upon first detection.

Background: Managing lower pole renal stones presents clinical challenges influenced by various factors such as stone size, location, and density. This study aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and stone-free rates of Flexible Ureteroscopy (FURS), Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL), and Mini Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (Mini PCNL) for treating lower pole renal hard stones (< 2 cm).
Methods: A prospective single-centre comparative study was conducted on 414 adult patients with primary lower pole renal hard stones.

To assess the accuracy of Kidney Stone Calculator(KSC), a software designed for surgical planning, in predicting the duration of lithotripsy during flexible ureteroscopy(FURS) when using the novel pulsed-Thulium: YAG(p-Tm: YAG) laser. From February to August 2023, a single-center prospective study was conducted, including patients with kidney or ureteral stones through non-contrast computed tomography(NCCT), who underwent FURS with p-Tm: YAG laser lithotripsy. KSC used three-dimensional segmentation of the stones from NCCT images, along with an interactive user interface for laser settings, to estimate the stone volume(SV) and the lithotripsy duration(LD).

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of a pressure-controlled and temperature-controlled flexible ureteroscope system (PT Scope™) during flexible ureteroscopy.
Materials And Methods: We developed the PT Scope™, a novel ureteroscope system with capabilities for monitoring and controlling intrarenal pressure and temperature to maintain them within set parameters. Data were retrospectively collected from 48 consecutive patients diagnosed with upper urinary tract stones who underwent flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy using the PT Scope™ across five centers in China.
