ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the efficacy of ureteroscopic lithotripsy(URL)combined with occlusion device and the supine and lithotomy position mini-invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy(mPCNL)in the treatment of upper incarcerated ureteral stones. No difference could be found in age,sex and size of stones between the two groups. Method From Jan. 2014 to Dec. 2016 in our hospital,all cases of upper incarcerated ureteral stones were diviede into two groups52 in ureteroscopic lithotripsy combined with occlusion device group and 45 in mini-inva-sive percutaneous nephrolithotomy group. Result The hospitalization and operation time in URL group were(5.5 ± 1.4)days and(53.3 ± 12.4)mins,which were significantly shorter than that in mPCNL group with(9.1 ± 3.2)days and(78.2 ± 14.1)mins,(P 0.05),stone clearance rate(100% vs 91.8,P > 0.05)and complication rate (4.4%vs 3.9%,P>0.05). Conclusion URL combined with occlusion device can obtain satifactory results as well as the supine and lithotomy position mPCNL in the treatment of upper incarcerated ureteral stones.
