A prospective and randomised trial comparing fluoroscopic, total ultrasonographic, and combined guidance for renal access in mini‐percutaneous nephrolithotomy

Abstract: Mini-PCNL under USG is as safe and effective as FG or CG in the treatment of simple kidney stones (S.T.O.N.E. scores 5-6) but with no radiation exposure. FG or CG is more effective for patients with S.T.O.N.E. scores of 7-8, where multiple percutaneous tracts may be necessary.

“…The results showed that RIRS provided a lower complication rate than mini-PCNL; however, the difference had no significance. The complications of mini-PCNL are similar to those of PCNL; bleeding, pain, and fever are very common [3538]. …”

“…Our hypothesis was a lower rate of postoperative SIRS in the ABP groups than in the zero‐dose group. According to the sample size calculation formula for comparing the different rates between multiple independent samples, n=2λ/(2sin-1Pnormalmax-2sin-1Pnormalmin)2 . The λ corresponds to the value of 9.63 with α = 0.05, two‐tailed, and a power of 80%.…”

“…The stones were fragmented by pneumatic lithotripsy. The operating time was calculated from the start of the percutaneous puncture to the completion of nephrostomy tube placement . During the operation, stone fragments were collected in a sterile container with saline and ground to powder using sterile grinders.…”
