In addition, the mean stone size in cases failing TORSS was smaller than that documented in successfully treated patients (7.8\u2009\u00b1\u20091.8 vs. 9.8\u2009\u00b1\u20092.4\u2005mm). No major untoward effects were observed (transitory lingual nerve dysfunction in 3 patients undergoing Xi Da Vinci surgery).

observed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Intrinsic stone features (such as size, location\/palpability) seems to be predictor for surgical success; an
