About this trial
Pediatric nephrolithiasis accounts for approximately 2-3% of all stone disease cases, with recent reports indicating a rising prevalence of up to 10.6%. This increasing incidence poses a growing public health concern. The primary objective in managing pediatric renal stones is complete stone clearance while minimizing complications and improving the patient's quality of life.

Treatments tested in this trial
Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery
Procedure/Surgeryto compare the efficacy and safety of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) versus mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (mini-PCNL) in the management of renal stones ≤2 cm in pediatric patients.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Measure Stone-Free Rate:
Defined as the absence of residual stones or the presence of clinically insignificant residual fragments (CIRF) \<4 mm or absent and this will be better results, but if Clinical significant residual fragments \> or Equal 4 mm may need Auxillary procedure Evaluation the patients after the operation by Stone-Free Rate as an indicator of surgical success.
