Flexible ureterorenoscopy and laser lithotripsy with regional anesthesia vs general anesthesia: A prospective randomized study

Abstract: Purpose: To compare the effect of general anesthesia (GA) and regional anesthesia (RA) on fURS outcomes and surgeon comfort. Material and Methods: The study was conducted between June 2017 to January 2018 and data collection was applied in a prospective, randomized fashion. 120 patients participated in the study and were divided into RA group (n=56) and GA group (n=64).

“…The rates of conversion are similar to the figures published in the literature. [8][9][10] There is a practical concern that SA takes longer than GA, which was reflected in our study with SA taking on average 9 mins longer to administer than GA (SA 26 mins, GA 17 mins) (see Figure 2). This did not impact on the number of achievable cases in a session (6-8/day).…”

“…[21][22] However, there may still be a higher risk of complications when using SA compared to GA for URSs. 23 Additionally, the induction and recovery times are long when using SA. 3 There is scarce evidence comparing SA to loco-sedative anesthesia.…”

“…Fourteen articles were retrieved for full-text analysis of which one was excluded as it compared peripheral nerve block with GA. Finally, a total of 13 studies were included in this systematic review and metaanalysis (17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29).…”
