Preventing repeat kidney stones after removal surgery
Part of Infections, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a treatment to prevent kidney stones from coming back after they are removed with a procedure called PCNL. The treatment uses a solution called dioxidine to help stop infection-related stones from forming again.

This study looks for better ways to predict when kidney stones may come back and what complications might happen. It may help doctors personalize follow-up and prevention plans based on information collected from you.
This study tests a new device that removes kidney stones using suction and a camera together. It aims to make the procedure more efficient and possibly reduce the need for multiple surgeries.
This study compares two methods for removing kidney stones when they are too large or complex for other treatments. Both methods use a small cut in the back to reach the kidney, and the goal is to find which approach works better with fewer complications.
This study compares two ways of positioning patients during surgery to remove large kidney stones. It aims to find which position is safer and more effective for people with stones larger than 2 cm.
This study looks at a blood test done before percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), a procedure to remove kidney stones. The goal is to see whether results can predict who is more likely to develop infections or strong whole-body inflammation after surgery.
This trial compares two methods to remove kidney stones that are 2-4 cm in size: one uses a thin tube through a small cut in your back (VISOR), and the other uses a larger cut (PCNL). The goal is to see which approach works better and has fewer side effects.
