Office-based procedures under local anesthesia are not a popular and well-accepted concept in pediatric urology except for newborn circumcision. There is limited literature on the utilization of office-based procedures under local anesthesia in pediatric urology. In this study, we present our experience of office-based procedures under local anesthesia from a tertiary center. This is a retrospective study of the patients who underwent meatotomy and penile adhesion release in the clinic under local anesthesia between January 2017 and August 2022 by a single surgeon in a tertiary center. A total of 92 patients were included in this study. There were 65 patients diagnosed with meatal stenosis and 27 patients diagnosed with penile adhesion. The overall incidence of recurrence was noted in four patients. Only one patient had minimal complications. The overall average follow-up was 5.39 months (1–10 months). Selective office-based procedure (meatotomy and penile adhesion release) under topical local anesthesia is a simple, safe, and effective method to treat such conditions with a high success rate, especially with financial and time constraints on health care nowadays.
除新生儿包皮环切术外,局部麻醉下的诊室手术在小儿泌尿外科并不流行,也未被广泛接受。关于在局部麻醉下进行诊室手术的文献在小儿泌尿外科中的应用非常有限。在本研究中,我们介绍了一家三级医疗中心在局部麻醉下进行诊室手术的经验。 这是一项回顾性研究,研究对象是在 2017 年 1 月至 2022 年 8 月期间,由一家三级中心的单个外科医生在局部麻醉下在门诊接受切肉术和阴茎粘连松解术的患者。本研究共纳入 92 例患者。 其中 65 例患者被诊断为肉阜狭窄,27 例患者被诊断为阴茎粘连。总复发率为 4 例。只有一名患者出现了轻微的并发症。总体平均随访时间为 5.39 个月(1-10 个月)。 在局部麻醉下选择性地在诊室进行手术(切肉瘤和阴茎粘连松解术)是一种简单、安全和有效的方法,治疗这类疾病的成功率很高,尤其是在当今医疗保健受到经济和时间限制的情况下。

To examine the relationship between clinical patient characteristics and the severity of the disease course in patients hospitalized due to urinary bladder tamponade. The severity was assessed based on hemoglobin (Hgb) levels upon admission, the requirement for red blood cell transfusion (RBCT), and length of hospital stay. A retrospective analysis was conducted at a single center, involving 75 patients who were hospitalized due to urinary bladder tamponade. Bladder cancer (33.3%) and postoperative bleeding (28%) were the most common causes of bladder tamponade. Patient age exhibited a negative correlation with Hgb levels upon admission (r = −0.539, P < 0.001) and a positive correlation with the quantity of administered RBCT units (r = 0.425, P < 0.001) and the length of hospitalization (r = 0.541, P < 0.001). The number of comorbidities exhibited a negative correlation with Hgb levels upon admission (r = −0.555, P < 0.001) and a positive correlation with the quantity of administered RBCT units (r = 0.522, P < 0.001) and the length of hospitalization (r = 0.543, P < 0.001). Patients taking antithrombotic therapy (AT) had lower mean Hgb levels on admission (87.8 ± 13.5 g/L vs. 107.6 ± 18.7 g/L, P < 0.001), a higher mean number of administered RBCT units (2.8 ± 2.1 vs. 1.1 ± 1.3, P < 0.001) and longer hospitalizations (4.6 ± 1.6 days vs. 3.1 ± 1.1 days, P < 0.001) compared to those not taking AT. Older patients with multiple comorbidities, particularly those taking AT, should be expected to have a more severe clinical course of bladder tamponade. Therefore, special clinical attention is necessary for this vulnerable patient group.
研究膀胱填塞住院患者的临床特征与病程严重程度之间的关系。严重程度根据入院时的血红蛋白(Hgb)水平、输注红细胞(RBCT)的需求和住院时间进行评估。 在一个中心进行了一项回顾性分析,共有 75 名患者因膀胱尿路填塞而住院。 膀胱癌(33.3%)和术后出血(28%)是最常见的膀胱填塞原因。患者的年龄与入院时的血红蛋白水平呈负相关(r = -0.539,P < 0.001),与给药 RBCT 单位数量(r = 0.425,P < 0.001)和住院时间(r = 0.541,P < 0.001)呈正相关。合并症的数量与入院时的血红蛋白水平呈负相关(r = -0.555,P < 0.001),而与给药 RBCT 单位的数量(r = 0.522,P < 0.001)和住院时间(r = 0.543,P < 0.001)呈正相关。与未接受抗血栓治疗(AT)的患者相比,接受抗血栓治疗(AT)的患者入院时平均血红蛋白水平较低(87.8 ± 13.5 g/L vs 107.6 ± 18.7 g/L,P < 0.001),平均使用 RBCT 单位数量较多(2.8 ± 2.1 vs 1.1 ± 1.3,P < 0.001),住院时间较长(4.6 ± 1.6 天 vs 3.1 ± 1.1 天,P < 0.001)。 有多种并发症的老年患者,尤其是服用抗高血压药的患者,其膀胱填塞的临床病程会更严重。因此,临床上有必要特别关注这一易受伤害的患者群体。

Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is the most common cause of antenatal hydronephrosis. The incidence is around 1: 750–1500 live births. The standard treatment for (UPJO) is open pyeloplasty (OP) with a high success rate of 90%–95%. In the last 20 years, minimal invasive pyeloplasty (MIP) became an excellent alternative technique to OP which was historically the standard of care. The study participants were male and female patients aged 14 years old or less who had undergone open/minimally invasive pyeloplasty during 2015–2020 and who had at least 1-year follow-up after surgery. The data were collected retrospectively from patients’ charts. The patients were categorized into two cohort groups: OP and on the other arm minimally invasive pyeloplasty (robotic/laparoscopic) comparing the outcomes as a 1ry endpoint. 2ry endpoints were hospital stay, duration of surgery, and anteroposterior diameter of renal ultrasound. A total of 133 patients were included in the study. Eighty-four underwent MIP while 49 patients underwent OP. 1ry endpoint was the success rate in both groups. The success rate was 94% (n: 79) and 98% (n: 48) in patients who underwent MIP and OP, respectively. P <0.05 is considered significant. Open and minimally invasive pyeloplasty are comparable in terms of success rate. However, OP was associated with shorter hospital stays and shorter operative times.
输尿管盆腔交界处梗阻(UPJO)是产前肾积水最常见的原因。发病率约为 1:750-1500。UPJO)的标准治疗方法是开放式肾盂成形术(OP),成功率高达 90%-95% 。在过去的 20 年中,微创肾盂成形术(MIP)成为替代开放式肾盂成形术的最佳技术,而开放式肾盂成形术一直是治疗的标准。 研究对象为 2015-2020 年间接受过开放/微创肾盂成形术且术后随访至少 1 年的 14 岁或以下男女患者。数据从患者病历中回顾性收集。患者被分为两组:OP组和微创肾盂成形术(机器人/腹腔镜)组,将结果作为第一个终点进行比较。两个终点分别是住院时间、手术时间和肾脏超声前后方直径。 研究共纳入了133名患者。84名患者接受了MIP手术,49名患者接受了OP手术。两组患者的终点均为成功率。接受 MIP 和 OP 的患者成功率分别为 94%(79 人)和 98%(48 人)。P<0.05为差异显著。 就成功率而言,开放式和微创肾盂成形术不相上下。不过,OP 的住院时间更短,手术时间更短。

Urolithiasis is a common and recurrent condition with a rising global incidence. Stones typically develop in the upper urinary tract, primarily the kidneys. Various factors such as age, gender, diet, fluid intake, climate, occupation, genetics, and metabolic diseases influence stone formation. Stones can vary in size and location, causing obstruction, urine stasis, and complications such as infection. The prevalence of urolithiasis in Saudi Arabia has significantly increased in recent decades, and the study aims to determine the current prevalence and composition trends of urolithiasis, guide treatment and prevention strategies, as well as understand predictors of occurrence and recurrence. It is a retrospective cohort study where the data was collected in the time frame of 2015–2021. The study was conducted in the Department of Surgery and the Division of Urology at King Abdulaziz Medical City in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The study reveals significant trends in the sociodemographic profile and clinical aspects of urolithiasis patients. With a higher incidence among males (68.5%). Stone compositions predominantly consist of calcium oxalate (67.8%) and uric acid (19.7%), while site distribution shows the left kidney as the most common location (36.5%). Notably, hypertensive patients exhibit a significant association with stone site (P = 0.014). Encouragingly, the majority of patients do not experience reoccurrence (91.6%), and the study demonstrates an increasing recurrence rate with subsequent visits. The relatively shorter hospital stays (55.9% with 1-day stays) indicate efficient management, and this knowledge can aid in optimizing patient care. This study sheds light on the multifaceted nature of urolithiasis by examining various facets. Low recurrence rate of kidney stones offers positive prospects for effective initial management. The shorter hospital stays, suggest advancements in medical practices, enhancing patient convenience and healthcare resource optimization. Investigating the underlying causes behind the observed stone compositions yield insights into potential preventive strategies. Furthermore, extended studies examining the impact of lifestyle modifications and medical interventions on stone recurrence could contribute to refined treatment protocols. These findings can guide healthcare professionals in optimizing patient care, preventive strategies, and future research endeavors.
尿路结石是一种常见的复发性疾病,全球发病率呈上升趋势。结石通常发生在上尿路,主要是肾脏。年龄、性别、饮食、液体摄入量、气候、职业、遗传和代谢性疾病等各种因素都会影响结石的形成。结石的大小和位置各不相同,可导致梗阻、尿液淤积和感染等并发症。近几十年来,沙特阿拉伯的尿路结石发病率显著上升,本研究旨在确定当前尿路结石的发病率和构成趋势,指导治疗和预防策略,并了解发生和复发的预测因素。 这是一项回顾性队列研究,数据收集时间为 2015-2021 年。研究在沙特阿拉伯王国利雅得阿卜杜勒阿齐兹国王医疗城的外科和泌尿科进行。 研究揭示了尿路结石患者的社会人口概况和临床方面的重要趋势。男性发病率较高(68.5%)。结石成分主要是草酸钙(67.8%)和尿酸(19.7%),结石部位分布显示左肾是最常见的部位(36.5%)。值得注意的是,高血压患者与结石部位有显著关联(P = 0.014)。令人欣慰的是,大多数患者没有再发结石(91.6%),而且研究表明,随着就诊次数的增加,复发率也在增加。相对较短的住院时间(55.9% 的患者住院 1 天)表明管理效率较高,这些知识有助于优化患者护理。 这项研究通过对不同方面的研究,揭示了尿路结石的多面性。肾结石的低复发率为有效的初期治疗提供了积极的前景。住院时间的缩短表明医疗实践的进步,为患者提供了更多便利,并优化了医疗资源。对观察到的结石成分背后的根本原因进行调查,可以深入了解潜在的预防策略。此外,对改变生活方式和医疗干预对结石复发的影响进行深入研究,有助于完善治疗方案。这些发现可以指导医护人员优化患者护理、预防策略和未来的研究工作。

Peyronie’s disease (PD) is a localized fibrosis of tunica albuginea, which causes the anatomical and functional changes to the penis. Corporoplasty with grafting is indicated in severe (>60°) and complex curvature. Buccal mucosa is the most favored autologous graft material nowadays. The ventrolateral aspect of lingual mucosa has similar histological features to the rest of the oral cavity. This study aimed to test the efficacy, safety, durability, and reproducibility of corporoplasty with lingual mucosal graft (LMG) in the surgical treatment of PD in terms of surgical outcome, sexual function, and donor site complications. This prospective study included 19 patients of PD with severe and complex curvature, who underwent corporoplasty with LMG. Surgical and functional outcomes were assessed at follow-up planned at 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years. The mean operative time was 126.31 ± 21.45 min. Additional Nesbit’s plication to correct the residual deformity was required in 26% (5 / 19) of patients. Straightening of the penis (curvature <10°) was achieved in 89% (17 / 19) of patients. Increase in the penile length (>1 cm) postoperatively was achieved in 63% (12 / 19) of patients and a shortening of penis occurred in 5% (1 / 19) of patients. Newer onset erectile dysfunction developed in 11% (2 / 19) of patients, and patient and partner satisfaction rates were 89% (17 / 19) and 84% (16 / 19), respectively, in a mean follow-up of 20.66 ± 5.37 months. Donor site complications were minimal and no patient had any salivary changes or speech disturbances. LMG provided excellent short-term results in terms of deformity correction, improved sexual function, and minimal donor site morbidity. The method is simple and reproducible, and multicenter studies with larger number of cases with longer follow-up are required to confirm these favorable results.
佩罗尼氏病(PD)是白膜局部纤维化,会导致阴茎解剖学和功能上的改变。阴茎重度弯曲(>60°)和复杂弯曲时,可采用阴茎移植成形术。颊粘膜是目前最受欢迎的自体移植材料。舌粘膜的腹外侧具有与口腔其他部位相似的组织学特征。 本研究旨在从手术效果、性功能和供体部位并发症等方面,检验使用舌粘膜移植物(LMG)进行体部成形术治疗腭裂的有效性、安全性、持久性和可重复性。这项前瞻性研究共纳入了 19 名患有严重和复杂弯曲的下颌前突患者,他们都接受了带 LMG 的体部成形术。在计划的 2 周、3 个月、6 个月、1 年和 2 年随访中对手术和功能结果进行了评估。 平均手术时间为 126.31 ± 21.45 分钟。26%的患者(5/19)需要进行额外的内斯比特阴茎成形术来矫正残余畸形。63%的患者(12/19)术后阴茎变直(弯曲度为 1 厘米),5%的患者(1/19)术后阴茎变短。在平均 20.66±5.37 个月的随访中,11%(2/19)的患者出现了新发勃起功能障碍,患者和伴侣的满意度分别为 89%(17/19)和 84%(16/19)。供体部位并发症极少,没有患者出现唾液变化或言语障碍。 LMG 在矫正畸形、改善性功能和降低供体部位发病率方面都取得了良好的短期效果。该方法简单且可重复,需要进行更多病例和更长时间随访的多中心研究来证实这些良好的结果。

Klinefelter syndrome (KF) is a group of chromosomal disorders with at least one extra X chromosome in male individuals that leads to infertility and diminished hair growth in affected males. In this study, we present a case series of 16 nonmosaic KF and an extensive literature review. This is a retrospective study including 16 nonmosaic Klinefelter Syndrome patients that underwent micro-testicular sperm extraction (m-TESE) at our center between January 2016 and December 2022. Frequencies and percentages were used to present categorical variables, whereas continuous variables were presented as the median and interquartile range (IQR). The sperm retrieval rate (SRR) was assessed using a one-sample proportions test with continuity correction. Fisher’s exact test was to assess the differences between patients with negative and positive retrieval in terms of the categorical variables. A Wilcoxon rank-sum test was applied to explore the between-group differences in the numerical variables. A literature search was performed for additional publications of discussing m-TESE among KF patients. The median (IQR) age of patients was 40.0 years (34.5–47.0). All of the patients had nonobstructive azoospermia, and the majority of them (93.8%) had primary infertility. The most common histopathological findings were atrophic tubules (57.1%), followed by Sertoli cell-only (28.6%). Sperm retrieval was positive for two patients with a rate of 12.5% (95% confidence interval 2.2 to 39.6). Patients with positive sperm retrieval were significantly younger than their peers with negative retrieval (median = 28.0, IQR = 27.5 to 28.5 vs. median = 41.5, IQR = 35.8 to 47.0, P = 0.031). The successful conception rate was 100% (n = 2) using intracytoplasmic sperm injection with a birth rate of 100% (n = 2). Our observed SRR among nonmosaic KF patients was marginally lower than the reported literature. Younger-age patients were significantly more likely to benefit from the procedure.
克莱菲尔特综合征(KF)是一组染色体疾病,男性至少有一条额外的 X 染色体,会导致男性患者不育和毛发生长减少。在本研究中,我们对 16 例非马赛克 KF 进行了病例系列研究,并对大量文献进行了回顾。 这是一项回顾性研究,包括2016年1月至2022年12月期间在本中心接受显微睾丸取精术(m-TESE)的16例非马赛克克氏综合征患者。分类变量采用频率和百分比表示,连续变量采用中位数和四分位距(IQR)表示。取精率(SRR)采用带连续性校正的单样本比例检验进行评估。费雪精确检验用于评估取精阴性和阳性患者在分类变量方面的差异。Wilcoxon 秩和检验用于探讨数字变量的组间差异。我们还检索了文献,以了解更多关于在 KF 患者中讨论 m-TESE 的出版物。 患者的中位(IQR)年龄为40.0岁(34.5-47.0)。所有患者均患有非梗阻性无精子症,其中大多数(93.8%)为原发性不育。最常见的组织病理学检查结果是萎缩性小管(57.1%),其次是仅有塞尔托叶细胞(28.6%)。两名患者的取精结果呈阳性,阳性率为 12.5%(95% 置信区间为 2.2 至 39.6)。取精结果呈阳性的患者明显比取精结果呈阴性的患者年轻(中位数 = 28.0,IQR = 27.5 至 28.5 vs. 中位数 = 41.5,IQR = 35.8 至 47.0,P = 0.031)。卵胞浆内单精子注射的成功受孕率为 100%(n = 2),出生率为 100%(n = 2)。 我们在非马赛克 KF 患者中观察到的 SRR 略低于文献报道。年龄较小的患者更有可能从手术中获益。

Overactive bladder (OAB) syndromes are a vital global issue linked to sleep disturbances and insomnia. This survey explores the relationship between these health burden issues and their risk factors. A survey-based study was conducted among Makkah city citizens’ in April 2023. A standardized tool of OAB symptom score and Insomnia Severity Index was used to screen participants. The collected data were statistically analyzed using SPSS. Overall, 529 participants were enrolled in this survey with mean = 37.3 and standard deviation = 13.7. Most participants had mild OAB 74.67%, while insomnia represents no clinically significant subtype among the majority 55.39%. About 25.33% of participants had clinical OAB (moderate and severe), while approximately 44.61% had insomnia. Similarly, participants with the mild subtype of OAB show a significant correlation with no clinically significant subtype of insomnia (P ˃ 0.001). Furthermore, participants with moderate OAB were statistically associated with subthreshold insomnia (P ˃ 0.001). Medical attention and public awareness are mandatory for the early detection of OAB and insomnia.
膀胱过度活动症(OAB)综合征是一个重要的全球性问题,与睡眠障碍和失眠有关。本调查探讨了这些健康负担问题与其风险因素之间的关系。 2023 年 4 月,在麦加市市民中开展了一项基于调查的研究。研究人员使用 OAB 症状评分和失眠严重程度指数的标准化工具对参与者进行筛选。收集到的数据使用 SPSS 进行了统计分析。 共有 529 人参与了此次调查,平均值 = 37.3,标准差 = 13.7。大多数参与者有轻度 OAB,占 74.67%,而失眠在大多数参与者中没有临床意义,占 55.39%。约 25.33% 的参与者患有临床 OAB(中度和重度),约 44.61% 的参与者患有失眠症。同样,轻度 OAB 亚型参与者与无临床症状的失眠亚型有显著相关性(P ˃ 0.001)。此外,据统计,中度 OAB 患者与亚阈值失眠相关(P ˃ 0.001)。 要及早发现 OAB 和失眠症,医疗关注和公众意识是必不可少的。

In estimated glomerular filtration rate equations (eGFR), the race multiplier (RM) yields greater eGFR values and may assign less severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages to black individuals. When deciding on appropriateness for partial nephrectomy (PN), patients with CKD are often considered a relative or absolute indication. We hypothesize that the eGFR RM may have ramifications for patients being counseled for radical nephrectomy (RN) versus PN to manage their renal tumor. We utilized prospective and retrospective, IRB-approved single-center databases to select patients who underwent PN or RN between 2016 and 2022. Demographics, preoperative risk factors, preoperative eGFR, and surgical management were collected. Descriptive statistics and two-tailed difference of proportion tests compared the percentage of patients with CKD who underwent nephrectomy. This cohort included 1137 patients who underwent RN or PN, including 74 (6.5%) Black patients and 93.5% (n = 1063) non-Black patients. There was no statistically significant difference between the eGFR of Black and non-Black individuals using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation (P = 0.24) or Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration 2009 (CKD-EPI 2009) (P = 0.45); however, there was statistically significant difference in eGFR between sample populations when using CKD-EPI 2021 (P = 0.0055). Of the Black patient cohort, 16.2% of patients reclassified to a worse CKD class using CKD-EPI 2021, including 9.5% of Black patients reclassified to CKD3a or worse, and 14.6% of all patients (Black and non-Black) reclassified to a different CKD class under the CKD-EPI 2021 equation. There are quantitative differences in the evaluation of eGFR when utilizing different equations that may impact clinical considerations and health equity outcomes for nephrectomy across racial groups.
在估计肾小球滤过率方程(eGFR)中,种族乘数(RM)会产生较大的 eGFR 值,并可能将较轻的慢性肾病(CKD)分期分配给黑人。在决定是否适合进行肾部分切除术(PN)时,CKD 患者通常被视为相对或绝对指征。我们假设,eGFR RM 可能会对接受根治性肾切除术 (RN) 和肾部分切除术治疗肾肿瘤的患者产生影响。 我们利用经 IRB 批准的前瞻性和回顾性单中心数据库,选择了 2016 年至 2022 年间接受根治性肾切除术或根治性肾切除术的患者。我们收集了患者的人口统计学资料、术前风险因素、术前 eGFR 和手术管理。描述性统计和双尾比例差异检验比较了接受肾切除术的 CKD 患者的比例。 该队列包括 1137 名接受 RN 或 PN 的患者,其中包括 74 名(6.5%)黑人患者和 93.5%(n = 1063)非黑人患者。使用肾病饮食调整方程(P = 0.24)或 2009 年慢性肾病流行病学协作组(CKD-EPI 2009)得出的黑人和非黑人患者的 eGFR 差异无统计学意义(P = 0.45);但使用 CKD-EPI 2021 时,样本人群之间的 eGFR 差异有统计学意义(P = 0.0055)。在黑人患者队列中,16.2% 的患者在使用 CKD-EPI 2021 时被重新分类到更差的 CKD 等级,其中 9.5% 的黑人患者被重新分类到 CKD3a 或更差的等级,而在所有患者(黑人和非黑人)中,14.6% 的患者在 CKD-EPI 2021 等式下被重新分类到不同的 CKD 等级。 在使用不同方程评估 eGFR 时存在定量差异,这可能会影响不同种族群体肾切除术的临床考虑和健康公平结果。

The objectives of this study were to detect whether the use of alpha-blockers in posterior urethral valve (PUV) pediatric patients after valve ablation will improve the persistent obstructive symptoms despite the absence of obstruction and if there are associated side effects of its use. Methods: A prospective, single-blinded randomized study was conducted at the urology department of two hospitals on 50 male children between September 2019 and June 2021 with PUV. All children were treated by endoscopic ablation of PUV using the cold knife and were followed clinically for voiding symptoms and with ultrasonography and laboratory tests. All patients underwent second-look cystoscopy 1 month after primary valve ablation to see residual valves as a routine procedure confirming no remnant of the valve and still complaining of obstructive symptoms. They were divided into two equal groups 25 patients each. Group A was given alpha-blockers and Group B placebo for 1 month. Marked improvement of obstructive symptoms in Group A reaching about 90% (21 patients), whereas no mentioned improvement in Group B was noticed with no side effects of both medication the alpha-blocker and the placebo during its use. The use of alpha-blockers improves the obstructive symptoms in pediatric patients with PUV after valve ablation and in the absence of any further urethral obstruction with no side effects noticed during the period of its use.
本研究的目的是检测后尿道瓣膜(PUV)儿科患者在瓣膜消融术后使用α-受体阻滞剂是否会改善持续存在的梗阻症状,尽管没有梗阻,以及使用α-受体阻滞剂是否会产生相关副作用。 研究方法2019年9月至2021年6月期间,两家医院的泌尿科对50名患有PUV的男性儿童进行了前瞻性、单盲随机研究。所有患儿均接受了使用冷刀的内镜下 PUV 消融术治疗,并对其排尿症状、超声波检查和实验室检查进行了临床随访。所有患者都在原发性瓣膜消融术后 1 个月接受了膀胱镜二次检查,以观察残余瓣膜,这是一项常规程序,以确认没有残余瓣膜且仍有梗阻症状。他们被平均分为两组,每组 25 人。A 组服用α-受体阻滞剂,B 组服用安慰剂 1 个月。 A 组患者的阻塞症状明显改善,达到约 90%(21 名患者),而 B 组患者的症状没有明显改善,在使用阿尔法受体阻滞剂和安慰剂期间,两种药物均无副作用。 使用α-受体阻滞剂可改善瓣膜消融术后 PUV 儿科患者的梗阻症状,而且在使用期间不会再出现尿道梗阻,也没有发现任何副作用。

The objective is to compare the safety and efficacy of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) and ultrasound-guided (US-guided) shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) for the treatment of radiolucent lower pole calculi of 1–2 cm. This prospective randomized study was performed at our tertiary care urology institute of Benha University Hospitals; cases were randomized either to undergo RIRS (Group A) or US-guided SWL with a triple focus system (Group B). The safety and effectiveness of both therapies were compared using new criteria for stone-free rate (SFR): Grade A (absolutely stone free), Grade B (≤2 mm fragments), and Grade C (>2 mm up to 4 mm fragments), fluoroscopy time, operative time, auxiliary procedures, retreatment, and complications. Out of 100 patients, 92 were eligible for this study. RIRS had a higher SFR of 88.9% compared to SWL, 72.3% (P = 0.045). Furthermore, stone-free classification significantly differed between the studied groups (P < 0.001), with Grade A being significantly higher in Group A. Conversely, Grades B and C were lower in Group A. On the other hand, operative and fluoroscopy times were significantly reduced with SWL (P = 0.004 and < 0.001, respectively). While complications did not significantly differ between the two groups (P = 0.340), a significant distinction was observed in terms of the Clavien–Dindo classification. RIRS is an effective and safe option for treating radiolucent lower calyceal stones of ≤2 cm, with a greater SFR and lower need for auxiliary operations. However, Sono SWL is a cost-effective alternative that can achieve a comparable success rate after retreatment sessions.
目的是比较逆行肾内手术(RIRS)和超声引导下冲击波碎石术(SWL)治疗 1-2 厘米放射性下极结石的安全性和有效性。 这项前瞻性随机研究在本哈大学医院的三级泌尿科研究所进行;病例被随机分配为接受 RIRS(A 组)或使用三焦点系统的 US 导引震波碎石(SWL)(B 组)。采用新的无结石率(SFR)标准对两种疗法的安全性和有效性进行了比较:标准包括:A 级(完全无结石)、B 级(碎石≤2 毫米)和 C 级(碎石>2 毫米至 4 毫米)、透视时间、手术时间、辅助手术、再治疗和并发症。 在 100 例患者中,有 92 例符合研究条件。RIRS 的 SFR 为 88.9%,高于 SWL 的 72.3%(P = 0.045)。此外,研究组之间的无结石分级有明显差异(P < 0.001),A 组的 A 级明显更高,相反,A 组的 B 级和 C 级较低。虽然两组患者的并发症没有明显差异(P = 0.340),但在 Clavien-Dindo 分级方面却有显著差异。 RIRS 是治疗≤2 厘米的放射性下腔肾盏结石的一种有效而安全的方法,具有更高的 SFR 和更低的辅助手术需求。不过,声纳下腔静脉置入术是一种具有成本效益的替代方法,可在再治疗后达到相当的成功率。

The safety and effectiveness of both therapies were compared using new criteria for stone-free rate (SFR): Grade A (absolutely stone free), Grade B (≤2 mm fragments), and Grade C (>2 mm up to 4 mm fragments), fluoroscopy time, operative time, auxiliary procedures, retreatment, and complications.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 Out of 100 patients, 92 were eligible for this study. RIRS had a higher SFR of 88.9% compared to SWL, 72.3% (P = 0.045). Furthermore, stone-free classification significantly differed between the studied groups (P < 0.001), with Grade A being significantly higher in Group A. Conversely, Grades B and C were lower in Group A. On the other hand, operative and fluoroscopy times were significantly reduced with SWL (P = 0.004 and < 0.001, respectively). While complications did not significantly differ between the two groups (P = 0.340), a significant distinction was observed in terms of the Clavien–Dindo classification.\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 RIRS is an effective and safe option for treating radiolucent lower calyceal stones of ≤2 cm, with a greater SFR and lower need for auxiliary operations.
