Abstract

Purpose

To present the safety and efficacy of totally ultrasonography-guided Super-mini percutaneous nephrolithotomy (SMP) in the treatment of upper urinary tract stones both in children and adults.

Patients and methods

We carried out SMP in 104 patients (including 48 children and 56 adults) with upper urinary tract stones between June 2015 and February 2017. All steps of renal access were performed by ultrasonography. The lithotripsy was performed using either Holmium laser or pneumatic lithotripter. Perioperative and postoperative parameters along with operative data were recorded in detail.

Results

The mean age of children and adult patients were 4.4 ± 3.6 and 44.3 ± 15.7 years old, respectively. The stone burden was comparable for both groups (1.72 ± 0.66 vs 1.74 ± 0.56 cm, p = 0.852). Mean operation time was not significant different between two groups (p = 0.052), while the mean haemoglobin drop in children was much lower in adult patients (6.3 ± 6.9 vs 10.9 ± 8.69, p = 0.004). Both groups had similar SFRs in postoperative 1 day and at 1-month follow-up (p = 1.000, p = 0.912). Mean hospital stay of children and adult patients was 2.3 ± 0.8 and 2.2 ± 0.76 days (p = 0.484). The total complication rate was significantly lower in two groups (p = 1.000); none of the patients required blood transfusion.

Conclusions

Ultrasonography-guided SMP was a safe and effective treatment option for moderate-sized upper urinary tract stones, and has the advantage of preventing radiation hazard, especially for pediatric stone patients.

Adjuvante Immuntherapie verlängert Leben bei RCC

25.04.2024 Nierenkarzinom Nachrichten

Nun gibt es auch Resultate zum Gesamtüberleben: Eine adjuvante Pembrolizumab-Therapie konnte in einer Phase-3-Studie das Leben von Menschen mit Nierenzellkarzinom deutlich verlängern. Die Sterberate war im Vergleich zu Placebo um 38% geringer.

24.04.2024 DGIM 2024 Nachrichten

Patienten, die zur Behandlung ihres Prostatakarzinoms eine Androgendeprivationstherapie erhalten, entwickeln nicht selten eine Anämie. Wer ältere Patienten internistisch mitbetreut, sollte auf diese Nebenwirkung achten.

Stufenschema weist Prostatakarzinom zuverlässig nach

22.04.2024 Prostatakarzinom Nachrichten

Erst PSA-Test, dann Kallikrein-Score, schließlich MRT und Biopsie – ein vierstufiges Screening-Schema kann die Zahl der unnötigen Prostatabiopsien erheblich reduzieren: Die Hälfte der Männer, die in einer finnischen Studie eine Biopsie benötigten, hatte einen hochgradigen Tumor.

Harnwegsinfektprophylaxe: Es geht auch ohne Antibiotika

20.04.2024 EAU 2024 Kongressbericht

Beim chronischen Harnwegsinfekt bei Frauen wird bisher meist eine Antibiotikaprophylaxe eingesetzt. Angesichts der zunehmenden Antibiotikaresistenz erweist sich das Antiseptikum Methenamin-Hippurat als vielversprechende Alternative, so die Auswertung einer randomisierten kontrollierten Studie.
