RESUMEN
【Objective】 To compare the clinical safety and effectiveness of super-mini-percutaneous nephroscope (SMP) combined with flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy (FURL) in oblique supine lithotomy position and FURL alone in the treatment of 2.0-3.0 cm renal calculi. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 55 patients treated during Jan.2018 and May 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including 47 cases complicated renal calculi, and 14 cases of lower calyceal calculi with infundibulopelvic angle ≤30°. SMP combined with FURL was performed in 23 cases (combined group), and FURL alone was performed in 32 cases (FURL group). The operation time, hemoglobin reduction, postoperative hospital stay, hospitalization expenses, stone-clearance rate and complications were compared. 【Results】 All operations were successful. Compared with the FRUL group, the combined group had significantly more hemoglobin reduction [(16.30±10.17) g/L vs. (6.94±6.61) g/L], longer postoperative hospital stay [(5.35±1.61) d vs. (3.19±1.26) d], and higher hospitalization expenses [(22 481±2 234) yuan vs. (18 209±2 584) yuan] (P0.05]. One month after surgery, CT results showed that the combined group had higher stone-clearance rate (91.30% vs. 65.63%, P=0.027). There was no difference in the complication rate (21.74% vs. 21.88%, P>0.05). One case (4.35%) in the combined group and 5 cases (15.63%) in the FURL group received retreatment (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 SMP combined with FURL in oblique supine lithotomy position is safe and effective in the treatment of 2.0-3.0 cm renal calculi, with high stone-clearance rate and low complication rate.
RESUMEN
【Objective】 To explore the safety and efficacy of a modified one-piece posterior laparoscopic total nephroureterectomy with cystic sleeve resection in the treatment of upper urinary tract uroepithelial carcinoma (UTUC). 【Methods】 A total of 24 patients treated during Jan. and Jun. 2022 were involved, including 16 males and 8 females, aged 62 to 90 (average 73) years. The UTUC was in the left side in 15 cases, and in the right side in 9 cases. There were 10 cases of renal pelvis tumor, 6 cases of upper ureteral tumor and 8 cases of lower ureteral tumor. 【Results】 All operations were successful without conversion to open surgery. The operation time ranged from 60 to 100 minutes, average (71.25±9.80) minutes. The intraoperative bleeding volume was 20 to 200 mL, average (30.03±8.13) mL. No significant intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred. The postoperative hospital stay was 4 to 7 days, average (5.83±1.44) days. Bladder perfusion chemotherapy was performed after surgery. 【Conclusion】 The modified one-piece posterior laparoscopic total nephroureterectomy plus cystic sleeve resection for UTUC is an effective and feasible procedure with satisfactory tumor control, which is worth further promotion in clinical practice.
RESUMEN
Objective To compare the safety and efficacy of oblique supine position and lithotomy position in suctioning flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy. Methods 82 patients with upper urinary calculi were divided into two groups. Group 1 included 47 patients who were treated by suctioning flexible ureteroscopy in oblique supine position. Group 2 included 35 patients who were treated in lithotomy position. There was no significant statistical difference in age, gender and complications between the two groups before surgery (P > 0.05). The operative time, stone-free rates at postoperative 30 d, renal pelvic pressure (RPP), postoperative complications (graded by the Clavien system) and length of stay were compared. Results Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) was successful in 73 cases, and 9 cases of patients were done successfully after indwelling DJ tube 2 weeks. Compared with lithotomy position, a significantly greater stone-free rate of 30 d, shorter operative time (P 0.05). Conclusions Suctioning flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy in the oblique supine position is safe, and more effective than supine lithotomy position.
RESUMEN
Objective To provide imaging anatomy basis for percutaneous nephrolithotomy ( PCNL) by measuring relative displacement and changes in anatomical position of kidney and colon under the prone and low-oblique supine positions.Methods Forty-six patients scheduled for PCNL underwent 64-slice spiral CT scan under the prone and low-arch oblique supine position before the PCNL.The horizontal distance of kidney and colon,the distance from colon and analog puncturing line,the distance between the kidney and colon were measured and compared between the 2 positions.Results The distance from colon and analog puncturing line under the low-oblique supine and prone positions were as follows,the left (26.56 ±15.36) mm versus (12.25 ±13.16) mm (t=3.527,P0.05).Conclusions The distance between colon and analog puncturing line increases in the low-arch oblique supine position,because the colon shifts to the ventral.The PCNL in low-arch oblique supine position may reduce the incidence of colon injury,and improve surgical safety.
RESUMEN
Objective To compare the efficacy between ureteroscope with holmium laser lithotripsy (URS) and minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy (MPCNL) in oblique supine position for the proximal and middle ureteral calculi.Methods Ninety-six patients with proximal and middle ureteral calculi were divided into URS group (54 cases) and MPCNL group(42 cases) according to the treatment order.The operative duration,postoperative hospital stay,stone-free rate,intraoperative blood loss ＞ 400 ml rate,conversion to open surgery rate,complication rate including postoperative fever were observed,and stone composition was analyzed.Results The operative duration and postoperative hospital stay in URS group and MPCNL group were (55.3 ± 12.1),(49.6 ± 11.5) min and (1.7 ± 0.9),(4.4 ± 1.2) d,respectively,and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).There were no significant differences in the stone-free rate,complication rate (Clavien degree Ⅱ),conversion to open surgery rate,intraoperative blood loss ＞ 400 ml rate,complication rate,postoperative fever rate (P ＞ 0.05).Stone composition analysis showed that the proportion of calcium oxalate stone was 51.0％(49/96).Conclusions URS and MPCNL in oblique supine position for the proximal and middle ureteral calculi are effective and safe therapeutic modalities.The operative duration of MPCNL in oblique supine position is shorter,and postoperative recovery of URS is fast.
