Lower Pole Midsize (1–2 cm) Calyceal Stones: Outcome Analysis of 56 Cases

Abstract: Objectives: To compare efficacy of shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) with percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) and retrograde ureterorenoscopy (RUR) in the management of midsize (1–2 cm) lower calyceal stones and the impact of lower pole (LP) anatomy on lithotripsy results. Patients and Methods: Between 2007 and 2011, 56 patients with lower calyceal stones 1–2 cm were indicated for intervention. 24 patients were treated with SWL, 19 with PNL, and 13 with RUR. Results: Mean age at surgery was 53, 45 and 47 years for SW… Show more

“…Percutaneous renal access results in a high stone-free rate and low morbidity after the PNL procedure [20,21,22]. Stone disintegration and removal of the stone fragments are performed using the nephroscope, which is inserted in the collecting system through the gate-renal access.…”

“…La mayoría evalúan resultados cuando la litiasis es de mediano tamaño (1-2 cm) Figura 1. (14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19). El tamaño muestral oscila siendo el menor 13 pacientes en el grupo de CIR del estudio de Aboutoleb et al (17) y el mayor 285 pacientes sometidos a LEOC en el estudio de Martay et al (20).…”

“…El tiempo medio para una sesión de LEOC está entre 42.3 ± 6.3 y 48.3 ± 16 (17,19). El tiempo de intervención medio para la CIR varía con el tamaño de la litiasis: con litiasis mayores de 2 cm es de 117.5 ± 28.7 min y con litiasis menores de 2 cm es de 60.8 ± 19.9 min (17,19,(21)(22)(23)(24). Con respecto a la NLP el tiempo medio de intervención es de 73.7 ± 31.3 min y el de la miniperc de 72.1 ± 30.4 min (18,23).…”
