ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the clinical effect between percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and retroperitoneal laparoscopic pyelolithotomy (RLP) in the treatment of renal pelvis calculus,so as to provide evidence for the treatment of renal pelvis calculus.Methods A total of 108 patients with renal pelvis calculus were selected from January 2012 to December 2016 in Zhumadian Central Hospital.The patients were divided into PCNL group (n =59) and RLP group (n =49) according to the therapeutic method.The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,intraoperative blood transfusion rate,operative success rate,stone clearance rate,postoperative hemoglobin reduction,postoperative analgesia time,postoperative hospitalization time and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results The success rate of operation in PC-NL group and RLP group was 94.9％ (56/59) and 100.0％ (49/49) respectively,there was no significant difference in the success rate of operation between the two groups (x2 =1.026,P ＞ 0.05).The stone clearance rate in PCNL group and RLP group was 94.9％ (56/59) and 98.0％ (48/49) respectively,there was no significant difference in the stone clearance rate between the two groups (x2 =0.140,P ＞ 0.05).The intraoperative blood transfusion rate in PCNL group and RLP group was 5.1％ (3/59) and 2.0％ (1/49) respectively,there was no significant difference in the intraoperative blood transfusion rate between the two groups (x2 =0.105,P ＞ 0.05).There was no significant difference in operation time and postoperative analgesia time between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with the PCNL group,the blood loss and postoperative hemoglobin reduction were less,and the postoperative hospitalization time was shorter in the RLP group (P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of postoperative urinary leakage,urinary tract infection and secondary hemorrhage in PCNL group was 3.4％ (2/59),8.5％ (5/59)and 6.8％ (4/59) respectively;the incidence of postoperative urinary leakage,urinary tract infection and secondary hemorrhage in RLP group was 8.2％ (4/49),4.1％ (2/49) and 4.1％ (2/49) respectively;there was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative urinary leakage,urinary tract infection and secondary hemorrhage between the two groups (x2 =2.975,1.064,1.811;P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The clinical effect of PCNL and RLP in the treatment of renal pelvis calculus is fairly,and their safety is high.However,RLP has the advantages of less intraoperative bleeding,quick postoperative recovery and short hospitalization time.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of the retroperitoneal laparoscopic pyelolithotomy (RLP) and the percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in treating renal pelvic stone.Methods The data of 89 patients diagnosed as renal pelvic stone were retrospectively reviewed from January 2009 to July 2016,of whom 43 patients underwent RLP and 46 underwent PCNL.Statistical analysis was performed regarding operation time,blood loss,mean hospital stay,complication rate,and stone-free rate.Results The operation time in RLP group and PCNL group was (117.5 ± 16.7) min and (118.3 ± 16.6) min,respectively,and there was no significant difference (P =0.547).For the two groups,the mean hospital stay was (4.5 ± 0.5) d and (6.1 ± 0.9) d,the mean hemoglobin decrease was (4.5 ± 1.2) g/L and (18.1 ± 3.4) g/L,the post-operative blood transfusion rate was 2.3％ and 14.0％,the post-operative septic shock rate was 0 and 9.3％,respectively,with significant difference between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).The stone-free rate in both groups was 97.7％ and 95.3％ with no significant difference (P =0.557).Conclusions RLP has the advantages of quick recovery,less blood loss and lower complication rate than PCNL.It could be a minimally invasive option for the treatment of renal pelvic stone.
