Minimally invasive nercutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with negative pressure system in one-stage treatment of calculus pyonephrosis / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with negative pressure system in one-stage treatment of calculus pyonephrosis.Methods Eighty-three cases of calculus pyonephrosis,including 15 upper ureteral calculus cases,9 renal pelvis calculus cases,28 multiple calculus cases and 31 staghorn calculus cases,were retrospectively analysed.The diameter of the stone was from 1.2 to 6.3 cm.All the patients were punctured under X-ray or ultrasound guidance and established an access of 20 F.A 12 F nephroscope,combined with negative pressure system,was inserted to the collecting system to suck off the liquor pus.The stone was fragmented by pneumatic lithotripsy or holmium laser lithotripsy at one-stage.Negative pressure system was used to reduce the intrapelvic pressure during the operation.Results All the patients were treated successfully.The average operative time was 34 ± 19 min.The upper ureteral calculus and renal pelvis calculus cases were all stonefree at one-stage treatment.Of the other 59 cases,33 cases were stone-free and 26 cases need a secondlook.The total stone free rate was 68.7％(57/83)at one-stage and 91.6％(76/83)at second-look.Only 7 patients had fever after operation and no patient had sepsis or shock.Conclusion Combined with negative pressure system,minimally invasive percutaueous nephrolithotomy via a 20 F tract is safe and effective for one-stage treatment of calculus pyonephrosis.
