Objective To systematically review the effectiveness and safety of flexible ureteroscope lithtripsy (fURL) and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in treating renal calculus. Methods Such databases as MEDLINE, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, VIP, and WanFang Data from January, 1990 to August, 2012 were searched to comprehensively collect the clinical trials that compared fURL and PCNL in treating renal calculus. Two reviewers independently screened studies according to exclusion and inclusion criteria, extracted data, and assessed the methodological quality. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1 software. Results Eight non-randomized controlled trials involving 536 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, PCNL was better than fURL in stone clearance (OR=0.26, 95%CI 0.15 to 0.46), but fURL was better than PCNL in postoperative pyrexia (OR=0.1, 95%CI 0.42 to 3.35), the incidence of blood transfusion (OR=0.17, 95%CI 0.03 to 1.00), and the duration of hospitalization (P=0.45, I2=0%). Conclusion Current evidence has proved that PCNL is better than fURL in decreasing stone clearance, fURL is better than PCNL in complication, the duration of hospitalization, and medical costs.
Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of the tauro ursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) for preventing the relapse of lithiasis after the gallbladder-protected lithotomy. Methods Totally 80 cholecyslithiasis patients in Chengdu General Military Hospital who met the demand of lithotomy in protecting gallbladder were divided into two groups by random permutations, with 40 patients in each. The calculus was removed by using the percutaneous ultrasonic lithotripsy in order to preserve the well-functioning gallbladder. The patients in the trial group were given TUDCA after surgery for two years, whereas the patients in the control group received the same nursing and diet therapies without medication. The thickness of gallbladder wall and the contraction function of gallbladder were checked two years after surgery, the statistics of the recurrence rate of liary calculus symptoms and cholecyslithiasis were conducted, and the comparison between those two groups was performed. Results All the operations of gallbladder-protected lithotomy were successful. There was significant difference between those two groups two years after surgery in terms of the thickness of gallbladder wall and the contraction function of gallbladder (Plt;0.05). The relapse of lithiasis was remarkably decreased in the trial group (Plt;0.05). Conclusion The application of TUDCA for patients with gallbladder-protected lithotomy can prevent the relapse of cholecyslithiasis.

Methods: Between December 2006 and March 2009, 58 patients underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic ureterolithotomy of the upper ureter. After removal of the stones, the double J was put in and interrupted suture was performed for upper ureter. Results: Retroperitoneoscopic ureterolithotomy was successful in all patients, there was neither ureteral stricture nor recurrent calculus, the blood loss ranged from 510 mL, without urine leakage occurred.The mean hospital stay was 7 days, after 3 weeks double J was removed by cystoscopy. With 127 months followup, the hydronephrosis relieved and no recurrence of ureter calculus founded. Conclusion:Retroperitoneoscopic ureterolithotomy is a safe and effective minimally invasive operation, and worth to generalization.
ObjectiveTo explore the perioperative nursing mode for percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). MethodsA total of 866 patients with PCNL having undergone lithotripsy between January 2012 and December 2013 in our hospital were included in our study. Before surgery, they received position training, health education and psychological nursing. After surgery, patients received an integral medical wound care and pipeline management, as well as management of infectious shock and intercostal neuralgia. At the same time, we gave them dietary guidance and other health guidance. ResultsAll the patients were successfully discharged from hospital. Postoperative infection rate was 2.4%, septic shock rate was 0.2%, bleeding rate was 2.2%, urinary leakage rate was 1.5%, the rate of pneumothorax was 0.6%, subcutaneous emphysema rate was 0.3%, and intercostal neuralgia rate was 0.6%. The average hospital stay was (11.2±2.8) days. ConclusionThe innovative nursing mode and techniques have great significance on the success of PCNL surgery.
ObjectiveTo analyze the causes and characteristics of massive hemorrhage secondary to percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and assess the value of superselective renal artery embolization in the management of this condition. MethodsThe imaging data and prognosis of 28 patients who developed repeated massive hemorrhage secondary to PCNL and underwent superselective renal artery embolization between April 2005 and June 2013 were reviewed. ResultsFollowing superselective renal artery embolization, hemorrhage was effectively controlled in all the 28 patients. Follow-up lasted from 6 to 62 months, averaging 41.6 months. No hematuria or other complications occurred during the follow-up period. ConclusionSuperselective renal artery embolization is safe and effective in managing massive hemorrhage secondary to PCNL, and it may be used as a preferred treatment for patients who are refractory to expectant treatments.
ObjectiveTo assess the efficacy and safety of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) versus ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URL) in the treatment of impacted proximal ureteral stones>1 cm. MethodsWe electronically searched PubMed, Cochrane library, Embase, WanFang, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure and VIP database (by the end of July 2015) to collect randomized controlled trials involving PCNL vs. URL for the treatment of impacted proximal ureteral stones> 1 cm. The quality of those trials were assessed. Data were extracted and analyzed with RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsSix randomized controlled trials were finally obtained after screening. A total of 487 patients were included for a Meta-analysis. The results showed that, as compared with the control group (URL), the patients in the trial group (PCNL) had the following features: ① There was a remarkable improvement of stone clearance rate [RR=1.20, 95% CI (1.09, 1.33), P=0.000 3].② There was no statistical difference in postoperative fever rates, urinary tract perforation rates [RR=1.73, 95%CI (0.43, 7.00), P=0.45; RR=1.02, 95%CI (0.11, 9.37), P=0.99], but the incidence of hematuria was higher [RR=1.99, 95%CI (1.09, 3.62), P=0.03], and the mean operative duration was longer [WMD=30.03 minutes, 95%CI (10.04, 50.02) minuntes, P=0.003].③ The mean hospitalization stay was delayed by an average of 3.73 days [WMD=3.73 days, 95%CI (3.02, 4.44) days, P<0.000 01]. ConclusionPCNL is better than URL in the stone clearance rate, while patients in the PCNL group have to stay in the hospital much longer, and should bear longer mean operative duration.
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical efficacy and surgical techniques of laparoscopic choledocholithotomy and primary suture. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 58 patients who underwent laparoscopic choledocholithotomy and primary suture between January 2009 and December 2014. ResultsAll the 58 patients underwent the surgery successfully. Operation time was 45-125 minutes, averaging 75 minutes. Intraoperative blood loss was between 10 and 50 mL with an average of 20 mL. Postoperative hospital stay was 5-14 days with an average of 7 days. Four cases of biliary leakage were cured by conservative treatment. ConclusionWith operation indications strictly grasped and skillful operation techniques, laparoscopic choledocholithotomy and primary suture are safe and reliable with a good curative effect.
ObjectiveTo explore the value of laparoscopic choledocholithotomy on hepatolithiasis patients with previous bile duct surgery contraindicating hepatectomy. MethodsEighty-six hepatolithiasis patients contraindicating hepatectomy accepted laparoscopic choledocholithotomy during March 2009 and March 2013 in the department of general surgery, AVIC 363 hospital. Among them, 26 cases with previous bile duct surgery(PBS group) and 60 cases without (NPBS group), 15 cases with left intrahepatic bile duct stone, 52 cases with right intrahepatic bile duct stone, and 19 cases with bilateral intrahepatic bile duct stone. Perioperative materials were reviewed between two groups retrospectively. ResultsThe operation time of the PBS group and NPBS group was(161.4±31.5) min and(155.7±28.1) min respectively(P > 0.05). And the intraoperative blood loss of them was(69.2±50.7) mL and(44.1±27.4) mL respectively (P < 0.05). Postoperative complication incidence of PBS group was 53.8%, among them, ascites was found obviously much more in PBS group than that in NPBS group(P < 0.05). The general residual stone incidence of two groups was 15.1%, and the general stone clearance rate was 98.8%. The long term postoperative complication occurrence in PBS group was 23.1%, which was higher significantly than that in NPBS group(P<0.05). ConclusionLaparoscopic choledocholithotomy is a safe, effective thus feasible choice for hepatolithiasis patients with previous bile duct surgery, especially for those without hepatic atrophy, bilateral hepatic bile ducts stone with hepatic bile duct stricture and hepatic bile duct stone with coexisting biliary cirrhosis.
ObjectiveTo discuss the reason and treatment strategy of gallbladder muddy stones after cholecysto-lithotomy. MethodsThe clinical data of 62 patients with gallbladder muddy stones after cholecystolithotomy who were treated in our hospital from December 2008 to December 2014 was analyzed retrospectively. ResultsThere were 43 patients without any symptom and 19 patients with acute cholecystitis in 62 patients. Four patients were diagnosed with septation gallbladder, 6 patients with long and tortuous cystic duct, 3 patients with calculus of cystic duct, 4 patients with common bile duct stones, 39 patients with periampullary diverticula, 18 patients with pancreaticobiliary maljunction, 6 patients with duodenal papilla stenosis, 29 patients with duodenal papillitis, and 3 patients with duodenal papilla adenocarcinoma. Two patients were treated with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), 1 patient with endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) /endoscopic balloon dilation (EPBD) and LC, 1 patient with percutaneous transhepafic gallbladder drainage (PTGD) and open cholec-ystectomy, 14 patients with PTGD and EST/EPBD, 1 patient with PTGD and hepatocholangioplasty with the use of gallbladder (HG), 34 patients with EST/EPBD, 3 patients with EST/EPBD and endoscopic biliay metal stent drainage (EBMSD), 5 patients with HG, and 1 patient with EST/EPBD and HG. The gallbladder muddy stones disappeared after operations in 55 patients with gallbladder reserved, and gallbladder ejection fraction increased from (42±12) % to (59±16) %. Of the 62 patients, 53 patients were followed up for 6 months to 6 years (the median time was 3.6-year). During the follow-up period, 3 patients were diagnosed with gallbladder stones, 2 patients with common bile duct stones, and 2 patients with intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones. ConclusionBile efferent tract obstruction is the important reason for the formation of gallbladder stones. HG, EST, and balloon expansion are the efficient methods to resolve the bile efferent tract obstruction.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of incision closure device in laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy. MethodsThe clinical data of 130 patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy from Oct. 2014 to Feb. 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the methods of gallbladder suture, 130 cases were divided into two groups, 72 cases underwent traditional manual suture (MS group), and 58 cases underwent incision closure device (ICD group). The operative time, postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery time, bleeding volume, postoperative hospitalization time, hospitalization expenses, complications, and postoperative 6-12 months follow-up of patients in 2 groups were observed.Results One hundred and thirty cases were performed laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy successfully. The operative time and postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery time of ICD group were significantly shorter than those of MS group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The hospitalization expenses of the patients in ICD group were significantly higher than those in the MD group (P < 0.05). There were no significant difference between the two groups in the bleeding volume and postoperative hospital stay (P > 0.05). The patients were followed up for 6-12 months, with an average of 8 months, and no complications occurred and stone recurrence. ConclusionIncision closure device can shorten the time of laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy and postoperative recovery of gastrointestinal function, but the cost is higher. Next development, still need decrease the expend and strengthen clinical promotion.
