Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Holmium Laser in RIRS  For Renal stones upto 2 cm in size RIRS is an accepted modality. Traditionally Holmium laser was the workhorse laser. However with the advent of the Thulium fiber laser and its proven safety in patients and faster lasing speed in-vitro a comparative study to establish the safer and faster laser is necessary. We will measure stone volume and time required to completely break the stone and compare the rate of stone breakage

Brief Summary  
—Holmium:YAG laser has been the Gold standard in the treatment of upper and lower urinary tract stones.
—The SuperPulse Thulium fiber laser is an alternative laser source being studied world over as it is proposed to have lower retropulsion and higher efficiency.
—         There are quite a few prior experimental studies comparing Holmium:YAG laser and Thulium fiber laser for lithotripsy. Multiple studies reported about a 1.5–4 times faster stone ablation rate in favour of the Thulium laser fiber [1,2,3].
This needs to be tested in the patients. Safety of both lasers has been proven in literature but there are no studies comparing the two lasers
