The flexible and navigable suction ureteral access sheath (FANS-UAS) has increasingly been recognized as a potential game changer for retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). While this innovative technology has demonstrated promising results in adult populations, there is a notable lack of evidence regarding its application in pediatric cases, particularly in comparison to conventional ureteral access sheaths (CUAS). This study aimed to perform a comparative analysis of pediatric kidney stone cases treated with RIRS using FANS-UAS and CUAS.

This study used data from the Childhood Brain Tumour Epidemiology Study of Ontario (CBREO) which included children 0-15 years of age and newly diagnosed with CBTs from 1997 to 2003.
