RESUMEN
Objective:To compare the perioperative outcomes and safety of percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) and retrograde ureteral stenting (RUS) in the treatment of acute obstructive upper urinary tract infection.Methods:A comprehensive search was performed on the MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials to identify relevant literatures. The retrieval period was from the establishment of the database to August 2022. Inclusion criteria: ①Randomized controlled trial (RCT) of PCN and RUS in the treatment of acute obstructive upper urinary tract infection; ②Studies provided accurate data for analysis, including the total number of subjects and the results of each index; ③The full text of the study was available, and different literatures published in the same cohort were included in the newly published data. ④The observation indexes included the time for the recovery of body temperature, creatinine, leukocyte, operation, radiation exposure, postoperative fever, postoperative pain, and the incidence of postoperative fistulotomy or stent displacement. Exclusion criteria: ①non-RCT study; ②unable to obtain the full text. Two researchers independently screened the literature and evaluated the literature quality, and all the statistical data were analyzed by RevMan5.3 software.Results:Seven trials enrolled 727 patients were included in the meta-analysis, 412 in the PCN group and 315 in the RUS group included. Meta-analysis revealed that the advantages of PCN were lower incidence of postoperative hematuria ( OR=0.54, 95% CI 0.30-0.99, P=0.040) and lower incidence of insertion failure ( OR=0.42, 95% CI 0.21-0.81, P=0.010), but the fluoroscopy time of RUS group was shorter than that of PCN group ( MD=0.31, 95% CI 0.14-0.48, P<0.01). Moreover, there was no significant difference in time to normalization of temperature, time to normalization of creatinine, time to normalization of WBC, operative time, postoperative fever, postoperative pain, postoperative nephrostomy tube or stent slippage rate between the two surgical methods( P>0.05). Conclusions:The radiation exposure time of PCN was longer than that of RUS, but the incidence of postoperative hematuria and catheterization failure was lower than that of RUS.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the surgical technique and efficacy of pure retroperitoneoscopic extravesical standardized seeable (P.R.E.S.S.) technique for bladder cuff excision (BCE).Methods:Ninety five patients with UTUC from five domestic centers (30 cases from Changzheng Hospital, 21 cases from Peking University First Hospital, 20 cases from Yuhuangding Hospital, 21 cases from Dalian Medical University affiliated No.2 Hospital and 3 cases from General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command)between August 2017 and December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 57 males and 38 females with a mean age of (67.7±10.0) years and median tumor size of 3.0 cm. All patients underwent pure retroperitoneoscopic radical nephroureterectomy with a single surgical position and four (36 cases) or five (59 cases) trocar layout according to the surgeon’s prefer habit and experience. The demographics of the two groups were the age of [(66.3±11.2)years vs. (68.6±9.1)years], male/female ratio of (25/11 cases vs. 32/27 cases), body mass index of [(25.0± 3.0)kg/m 2 vs. (24.8±3.4)kg/m 2], tumor maximum diameter of [2.8(1.6, 3.5)cm vs. 3.0(2.0, 4.0)cm], left/right side tumor of(19/17 cases vs. 34/25 cases), T 1-2/T 3-4/Tis stage of(25/10/4 cases vs. 49/10/0 cases), and multifocal tumors of(3 cases vs. 2 cases), and the difference was not statistically significant( P>0.05). On the other hand, the differences of hydronephrosis of the operated kidney(13 cases vs. 39 cases, P=0.004), and tumor location (in renal pelvis or calyx or upper/middle/lower ureter being 23/9/4 cases vs. 35/4/20 cases, P=0.005), were statistically significant. The umbilical artery cord was used as anatomical landmark in the process of P. R.E.S.S. bladder cuff excision. The pelvic floor and extraperitoneal space around the ureter were expanded, the bladder wall was opened to form pneumovesicum, and a sufficient bladder cuff resection and exact bladder cuff closure was performed. Perioperative outcomes and follow-up data were analyzed, and the clinical outcomes between the four and five trocars were compared to evaluate the impact of trocar layout on the surgical outcomes. Results:There were 91(95.8%) cases successfully undergoing P. R.E.S.S. BCE technique, with one case converted to open BCE due to bleeding and three cases converted to distal ureter Hem-o-lok clipping because of poor exposure. Median operative time was 180(125, 230)min, and estimated blood loss was 100(50, 100)ml. The overall complication rate was 10.5%(10/95), including 2 cases(2.1%) of intraoperative bleeding, with 1 case treated by transfusion (400 ml), the other case converted to open surgery without transfusion. There were 8 cases of postoperative complications(8.4%), including 7 cases of Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ(3 cases of secondary hemorrhage, one case for each of drug allergy, acute renal insufficiency, blood creatinine increased to 490 μmol/L, or lung infection with lymphatic leakage), 1 case of grade Ⅲa(intestinal obstruction treated with insertion of the intestinal obstruction catheter under local anesthesia), and all these patients were discharged smoothly. The difference between the four and five trocars was not statistically significant in the following variables, including the rate of surgical conversion(8.3% vs. 1.7%), estimated intraoperative blood loss(100 ml vs. 60 ml), ratio of intraoperative lymph node dissection (25.0% vs.20.3%), P. R.E.S.S. bladder cuff excision success rate(91.7% vs.98.3%), the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications (13.8% vs.8.5%), pT 1-2/pT 3-4/pTis stage(22/11/3 cases vs.37/19/3 cases) and the proportion of recurrence or metastasis(8.3% vs.3.4%)(all P>0.05). However, the differences in the operation time(190 min vs.170 min, P=0.011)and postoperative hospital stay(5 d vs.6 d, P=0.005) were statistically significant. Conclusions:P. R.E.S.S. bladder cuff resection technique is safe and feasible during the procedure of pure retroperitoneoscopic radical nephroureterectomy by a single surgical position and facilitates seeable adequate bladder cuff excision by establishing an enlarged pelvic lateral extraperitoneal space and pneumovesicum. Five-trocar technique is more suitable for patients with lower ureteral tumors but may be associated with a longer postoperative hospital stay compared with the four-trocar technique.
RESUMEN
Purpose@#Transcutaneous electrical neural stimulation (TENS), as a non-invasive modality, has been clinically used as an alternative treatment for children with overactive bladder (OAB). We conducted a pooled analysis to explore the effect of TENS on OAB. @*Methods@#The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis guideline was followed in this study. The MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases, as well as the reference lists of the retrieved studies, were used to find trials relevant for assessing the use of TENS to treat OAB. @*Results@#Of the 246 records identified, 8 publications were analyzed in our study. Our analysis found that TENS resulted in a greater decrease of wet days/wk, daily voiding frequency, daily incontinence episodes, and daily number of voids than was observed in the control group. Furthermore, TENS-treated patients showed similar visual analogue scale (VAS) scores to patients in the control group, demonstrating that the application of TENS did not increase patients’ discomfort and pain. TENS had a relative advantage in the number of partial responses, but no clear differences were found in frequency of no response or a full response compared to the control group. In urodynamic testing, TENS led to obvious improvements in average voided volume and maximum voided volume in children with OAB. @*Conclusions@#TENS had a remarkable effect on the improvement of urodynamic indexes and objective OAB symptoms without a significant increase in VAS scores for children with OAB.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: OnabotulinumtoxinA is used widely for the treatment of neurogenic detrusor overactivity. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess its efficacy and safety for neurogenic detrusor overactivity treatment. METHODS: A systematic literature review was performed to identify all published randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trials of onabotulinumtoxinA for neurogenic detrusor overactivity treatment. MEDLINE, Embase, and the CENTRAL were employed. Reference lists of retrieved studies were reviewed carefully. RESULTS: Six publications involving 871 patients, which compared onabotulinumtoxinA with a placebo were analyzed. Efficacy of onabotulinumtoxinA treatment was shown as a reduction of the mean number of urinary incontinence episodes per day (mean difference, -1.41; 95% confidence interval [CI], -1.70 to -1.12; P<0.00001), maximum cystometric capacity (135.48; 95% CI, 118.22–152.75; P<0.00001), and maximum detrusor pressure (-32.98; 95% CI, -37.33 to -28.62; P<0.00001). Assessment of adverse events revealed that complications due to onabotulinumtoxinA injection were localized primarily to the urinary tract. CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis suggests that onabotulinumtoxinA is an effective treatment for neurogenic detrusor overactivity with localized advent events.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical outcome of laparoscopic nephroureterectomy (LUNT) for native upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UC) in renal transplant (RT) recipients.Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis on 1130 RT recipients,and 9 patients (0.8％,9/1130) with native upper tract UC were identified. UC was confirmed pathologically in the 9 patients,including 3 cases of unilateral ureter tumor (2 on the right,and 1 on the left),4 cases of unilateral renal pelvis tumor (2 on the right,2 on the left),1 case of bilateral ureter tumor and 1 case of tumor in the right ureter and left kidney.Females predominated (8/9) in the 9 patients with upper tract UC.The patients with left upper urinary tract cancer underwent LUNT using a retroperitoneal approach with a technique of transurethral circumcision of the ureteral orifice.The patients with right upper urinary tract cancer were subjected to nephroureterctomy with ureterectomy and bladder cuff excision by complete laparascopy through a transperitoneal approach. Immunosuppressive protocol conversion from calcineurin inhibitors to sirolimus was performed on all cases. Results In the 9 patients,11 LUNTs were performed successfully without conversion to open surgery.The follow-up period was from 6 to 48 months. One patient died of lung metastasis at 8th month after tumor excision,and 1 patient displayed ductal cancer of the left breast at 7th month after LNUT.Another seven patients showed no evidence of disease during the follow-up period with normal renal function.ConclusionOur present clinical experience suggested that LNUT for the native upper tract cancer in renal transplant recipients is feasible,safe,and effective.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the operative techniques and the methods of the renal function protection in laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery for the treatment of renal tumors.Methods Thirty-six renal tumor patients accepted transperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy at the 70 degree lateral decubitus position.There were 17 tumors in the upper pole,13 in the lower pole and 6 in the center of kindey.The mean tumor diameter was 2.6 cm(from 0.8 to 4.0 cm).Peke forceps were used to clamp the renal artery and achieve warm ischemia.Cold scissors was used to resect tumors and Hem-o-lok was used to clamp and control the artery bleeding in surgical bed instead of ligature when suturing the kidney parenchyma.Ulinastatin was used to prevent and relieve the ischemical reperfusion injury.The operative time,estimated blood loss,warm ischemia time,intraoperative and postoperative complications and the operative efficacy were recorded.Results All operations were completed successfully,no case was converted to open surgery.The mean operative time was 128 min(95 to 186 min),mean estimated blood loss was 130 ml (40 to 600 ml),mean warm ischemia time was 21 min(16to 28 min).There was no hemorrhage and urinary leakage after surgery.The post-operative renal function was normal in all the cases.The histopathological examination showed that 36 cases were renal cell carcinoma including 31 pT1a,cases and 5 pT1b cases.There was no positive surgical margin.The mean follow-up time was 16 months (from 6 to 30 months).There was no recurrence and metastasis found and renal function was normal in all cases during the follow-up.Conclusions Laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery for renal tumors is a safe and feasible treatment option.This procedure can resect tumor safely and preserve renal function efficiently.The use of Hem-o-lok instead of ligature can significantly reduce the operative time.Ulinastatin can help reducing the ischemical reperfusion injury and thus preserve renal function.
