The use of mediNiK\u00ae makes it possible to remove fragments from the kidney that cannot be removed with a grasping instrument due to their small size.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" id=\"ea-header-38561\" role=\"button\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=\"#collapse38561\" aria-controls=\"collapse38561\" href=\"#\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\">2.

Both hydrogel components bind residual stones within seconds. The stone fragments bound by the gel can then be effectively and quickly removed by the grasping methods used in flexible URS.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" id=\"ea-header-38562\" role=\"button\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=\"#collapse38562\" aria-controls=\"collapse38562\" href=\"#\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\">3.

Nearly all kidney stones &lt; 1 mm are a potential nucleus for new, larger renal stones.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" id=\"ea-header-38563\" role=\"button\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=\"#collapse38563\" aria-controls=\"collapse38563\" href=\"#\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\">4.

However, it may become trapped e.g. in the extraction basket, even when this is open. To prepare the extraction basket for the next retrieval procedure, we recommend wiping off the hydrogel on a coarse sterile gauze.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" id=\"ea-header-38566\" role=\"button\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=\"#collapse38566\" aria-controls=\"collapse38566\" href=\"#\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\">7.
