Risk factors analysis for residual stones after MPCNL for the treatment of upper urinary calculi in pediatric patients / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate factors affecting residual stones in pediatric patients with the upper urinary calculi un ‐dergoing minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy (MPCNL ) and evaluate MPCNL curative effect before the operation . Methods A total of 240 children underwent MPCNL to remove the upper urinary calculi in People′s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region during the period of January 2009 to November 2014 were analyzed retrospectively .Pediatric patients were di‐vided into two groups by the stone‐free rate after the first operationthose who were stone‐free after the first operation (n= 202) as the control group and those who were residual stones (n= 38) as residual stones observation group .Then the clinical data were sta‐tistically analyzed and find out risk factors which lead to residual stone .Results The stone‐free rate after primary M PCNL was 84 . 2% (202/240) .Univariate analysis showed that stone size (P= 0 .001) ,stone location(P= 0 .014) and number of stones(P= 0 .005) were significant factors which could affect residual stones between the two groups ,while did not relate with gender ,age ,stone side , urinary irritation symptom ,hematuria ,renal colic ,preoperative infection and the degree of hydronephrosis (P > 0 .05) .Multivariate analysis showed that stone size(OR = 2 .593 ,95% CI1 .228 - 5 .475) ,stone location(OR = 2 .674 ,95% CI1 .290 - 5 .540)and num‐ber of stones(OR = 2 .397 ,95% CI1 .145 - 5 .019)were independent predictors of the surgical outcome .Conclusion Stone size , stone location and number of stones are significant factors affecting residual stones in pediatric patients with the upper urinary cal ‐culi undergoing MPCNL .According to the the clinical features of pediatric patients ,we can chose suitable management of upper uri‐nary tract calculi .
