“…However there is a dilemma in the therapeutic approach in the presence of malignant obstruction. But PCN or other percutaneous or endourological methods may at least protect the patient from the adverse effects of uremia and save time for selecting and performing the appropriate treatment [12,13].…”

“…A series of recently published studies conducted in Brazil have highlighted the importance of interventional radiology in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases (1)(2)(3)(4)(5) . Devices such as percutaneous transhepatic biliary drains, plastic biliary stents, and metal biliary stents are widely used to alleviate biliary obstruction in patients with inoperable tumors and in those with benign, postinflammatory, or iatrogenic stenosis.…”

“…Thomas Hiller descreveu o acesso renal percutâneo pela primeira vez em 1865, a próxima descrição aparece na literatura apenas em 1955, onde Goddwin descreveu um acesso renal percutâneo em rim hidronefrótico (Zapato-González, Camacho-Castro, García, Reyna-Bulnes, & Robles-Scott, 2014;Kamei et al, 2020). Esta técnica visa o acesso ao sistema urinário objetivando a drenagem de urina do rim, geralmente impossibilitado por obstrução supravesical, que pode ser de natureza mecânica ou alterações anatômicas, diminuindo a ocorrência de hidronefrose e de comprometimento renal (Fernández-Cacho & Ayesa-Arriola, 2019;Meira et al, 2019). Por estabelecer um acesso direto ao sistema urinário, outras indicações da nefrostomia são: dissolução de cálculos, infusão de quimioterápicos, antibiótico ou antifúngicos, desvio do fluxo para otimizar o tratamento de fístulas, além de drenagem de coleções perirrenais (Meira et al, 2019).…”
