Ureteral Reimplantation or Percutaneous Nephrostomy: Which One Is Better in Management of Complete Ureteral Obstruction Due to Advanced Prostate Cancer?

Abstract: Background: The present study aims at evaluating the safety and efficacy of ureteral reimplantation and its influence on quality of life in the complete ureteral obstruction due to prostate cancer. Methods: In a prospective randomized study, 86 patients with complete ureteral obstruction were randomized into 2 groups: group 1 (ureteral reimplantation) and group 2 (nephrostomy). Biochemical values, complications, and survival of patients were recorded.

“…In the same study were mentioned metastases of the retroperitoneum, kidney, and adrenal glands, but with no mention of the ureter (3) For complete obstruction of the ureter from tumoral involvement, the treatment of choice for long term obstruction relief is the placement of a nephrostomy tube, which is associated with important complications such as febrile UTI, perirenal abscess, dislodgement of a nephrostomy tube, local inflammation and dermatitis of nephrostomy tract, and hemorrhage during nephrostomy placement. (4,5) The difficulty of diagnosis was high because of the lack of bone metastasis in the presence of iliac and retroperitoneal lymph nodes involvement, which could also be suggestive for upper tract urothelial carcinoma.…”

The accuracy of GS is important because any fault in the assessment and calculation leads to inappropriate approaches and complications (15,16).…”
