Mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy via ultrasound guidance in transplanted kidney: a report of two cases

Abstract: Urolithiasis is a rare but familiar problem in transplanted kidney patients, with a prevalence rate between 0.23-6.3%. Minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy (mini-PCNL) is a revised technique that uses a miniature endoscope through a small access sheath and is associated with minor bleeding risk. Only a few cases of mini-PCNL via ultrasonography (US) guidance in transplanted kidneys have been published. We present a 23-year-old female and a 34-year-old man who presented with obstructive uropathy due … Show more

“…The ureter of the transplanted kidney is often anastomosed at the dome of the bladder, significantly increasing the difficulty in identifying and inserting the ureteroscope during retrograde ureteroscopy. Owing to the increased risk of infection, severe adhesions, wound infections, and delayed wound healing, only experienced urologists at professional centers should be allowed to perform surgery [ 11 ]. In this case, the axis diameter of the patient's ureteral stone was large and the line of the transplanted ureter was tortuous, limiting the use of commonly used surgical treatments to relieve the obstruction.…”

“…При анализе источников, которые были отобраны для написания обзора, первоначально нами были рассмотрены работы, которые подтверждали факт того, что открытое хирургическое вмешательство в данной клинической ситуации исследователями рассматривается как крайняя мера вследствие сложности и травматичности [10][11][12][13]. Другие подходы к ведению таких пациентов (эндоурологический, перкутанная (чрескожная) нефролитотрипсия (ПНЛТ) реже рассматривались авторами при выборе метода лечения камней почечного трансплантата [14][15][16]. Метод ДУВЛ, как наиболее часто используемый в клинической практике, позволяет проводить неинвазивное вмешательство, не требующее общей анестезии.…”

“…Так, зарубежные исследователи в своей работе обобщили данные результатов выполнения ПНЛТ (4760). Клинические ситуации, рассматриваемые авторами, включали больных с коралловидными конкрементами (1240), камнями мочеточника (85), трансплантированными почками (14). Изучение данных пациентов с конкрементами в трансплантированных почках демонстрировало положительный эффект в 89% случаев [25].…”
