    Abstract Ureteric stents are conventionally used in daily urological practice. There is ongoing debate on the superiority of different stent materials, particularly in terms of patient tolerance. We conducted a literature review to compare silicone stents and stents made of other materials from a patient tolerability perspective. We conclude that silicone stents are better tolerated but further research is required.

    Title translation Calidad de vida en pacientes con litiasis urinarias.
    Abstract Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) are essential to fully understand the impact of diseases and the effectiveness of treatment from a patient's perspective. Generic and disease-specific tools have been used to assess the impact of nephrolithiasis on patients' quality of life (QoL), as well as the impact of various treatment modalities. Additionally, various studies have investigated the factors that might determine the impact of the disease on the patients' QoL. Here were view the available knowledge on this nascent topic and highlight the need for extensive future research in this crucial area.

    Abstract Kidney stones have a prevalence rate of > 10% in some countries. There has been a significant increase in surgery to treat kidney stones over the last 10 years, and it is crucial that such techniques are as effective as possible, while limiting complications. A selection of kidney stones with different chemical and structural properties were subjected to compression. Under compression, they emit acoustic signals called crackling noise. The variability of the crackling noise was surprisingly great comparing weddellite, cystine and uric acid stones. Two types of signals were found in all stones. At high energies of the emitted sound waves, we found avalanche behaviour, while all stones also showed signals of local, uncorrelated collapse. These two types of events are called 'wild' for avalanches and 'mild' for uncorrelated events. The key observation is that the crossover from mild to wild collapse events differs greatly between different stones. Weddellite showed brittle collapse, extremely low crossover energies (< 5 aJ) and wild avalanches over 6 orders of magnitude. In cystine and uric acid stones, the collapse was more complicated with a dominance of local "mild" breakings, although they all contained some stress-induced collective avalanches. Cystine stones had high crossover energies, typically [Formula: see text] 750 aJ, and a narrow window over which they showed wild avalanches. Uric acid stones gave moderate values of crossover energies, [Formula: see text] 200 aJ, and wild avalanche behaviour for [Formula: see text] 3 orders of magnitude. Further research extended to all stone types, and measurement of stone responses to different lithotripsy strategies, will assist in optimisation of settings of the laser and other lithotripsy devices to insight fragmentation by targeting the 'wild' avalanche regime.

    Abstract Indications for stenting should be considered and the stent indwelling time should be minimised. Silicone stents are superior in terms of lower rates of encrustation and stent symptoms. α-Blockers may have an off-label role in reducing both pain and urinary symptoms, while keeping an up-to-date stent register may help in ensuring that stents are not forgotten.

    Abstract Retrograde ureteric calculus migration is a rare phenomenon. Herein, we report two such cases where each patient presented with a calculus, measured at 5 mm and 6 mm, respectively, at the vesicoureteric junction (VUJ) on noncontrast computerized tomography kidneys, ureters, and bladder (CTKUB). Following acute presentation with renal colic, each patient opted for conservative management of their ureteric stone and became asymptomatic when undergoing their follow-up imaging. The first patient underwent a follow-up noncontrast limited pelvic computerized tomography (CT) where it had appeared that the radiolucent VUJ calculus had passed. This stone was then discovered incidentally 3 months later in the upper ureter when the patient had undergone a CT colonography. The other patient underwent a follow-up X-ray KUB where the stone was shown to have migrated to the lower renal pole calyx which was confirmed with noncontrast CTKUB imaging. In all reported cases of retrograde VUJ calculus migration, the use of a noncontrast limited pelvic CT scan either missed or would have missed this phenomenon. This potential pitfall of the noncontrast limited pelvic CT scan should be appreciated and the use of full upper renal tract imaging should be considered for the follow-up of radiolucent VUJ calculus cases whereby there is no clear history of calculus passage.
