After exclusions, 320 patients completed three-week follow-up. Forty-five anatomical parameters and procedural variables (intrarenal pressure, laser parameters, access sheath use, complications) were recorded.

Analysis employed multiple comparison corrections, hierarchical regression, propensity score matching, and cross-validation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Among 320 patients (67.8% male; mean age 51.6\u2009\u00b1\u200913.2 years), procedural factors primarily predicted postoperative pain.

Anatomical parameters provided negligible predictive value (R\u00b2=-0.018), with no significant correlations after multiple testing correction.

Optimizing intraoperative practices offers greater clinical benefit than preoperative morphometric assessment. These findings support deprioritizing resource-intensive anatomical profiling for pain prediction in RIRS. Preoperative anatomical profiling should not be routinely performed for pain prediction, as procedural optimization represents modifiable targets with greater impact on patient outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00345-026-06354-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,17]],"date-time":"2026-03-17T13:53:52Z","timestamp":1773755632000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Procedural factors outweigh anatomical morphometry in predicting postoperative pain following retrograde intrarenal surgery"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"44","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9873-4920","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mert","family":"Ba\u015farano\u011flu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-4933-0808","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ahmet","family":"Turhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6325-1534","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ali","family":"Nebio\u011flu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5769-0730","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mesut","family":"Tek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7669-414X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Erdem","family":"Akbay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"6354_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"975","DOI":"10.1016\/j.euf.2024.05.010","volume":"10","author":"V Gauhar","year":"2024","unstructured":"Gauhar V, Traxer O, Castellani D, Gallioli A, Harper L, Haddad M, Ganpule A et al (2024) Could use of a flexible and navigable suction ureteral access sheath be a potential game-changer in retrograde intrarenal surgery?
