PCNL :<br />

Longer operating time and higher morbidity<br />

Higher stone clearance<br />

Lower cost<br />

URS with Laser:<br />

Lower morbidity and shorter hospital stay<br />

Lower stone clearance with higher retreatment rate<br />

Higher cost including disposable equipment<br />

At this point <strong>of</strong> time, PCNL seems more effective in terms <strong>of</strong><br />
