Retrograde intrarenal surgery with intelligent pressure control: experience from a primary hospital in China.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of conventional retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) and RIRS with intelligent pressure control, as well as to identify factors influencing the stone-free rate (SFR). We conducted a retrospective review of 101 patients treated with either conventional RIRS or RIRS with intelligent pressure control from September 2023 to September 2024. Clinical and stone-related parameters were collected for comparison between the two methods, and factors affecting SFR were examined using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. The SFR was significantly higher in the intelligent pressure control group compared to the conventional RIRS group (89.8% vs. 73.1%, p = 0.032). No statistically significant differences were found between the two gr
