In brief
Response to commentary on pediatric ureteral stone management, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing pediatric-specific evidence from adult literature when evaluating spontaneous passage rates for stones ≤10mm in children.
Written by the GCMD Library team from the article.
We would like to thank our colleague Dr. Ismail Selvi for his interest in our article on spontaneous passage of ≤10 mm pediatric ureteral stones [1]. As you have mentioned, there are topics to uncover in urinary stone disease. However, in order to reach firm conclusions, we need to distinguish adult literature from pediatrics, as children are not miniaturized adults. Afterwards, we can go further to reveal what is the better for children.
