Abstract:

Objective

To compare the clinical efficacy of patients with middle and upper ureteral calculi treated with and without occlude.

Methods

The clinical data of 97 patients with middle and upper ureteral calculi, from January 2017 to December 2019 in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, were retrospectively analyzed. The calculi were all unilateral and located above the sacroiliac joint plane. Depending on whether or not an occluder was used intraoperatively, they were divided into observation group (45 cases, with occluder) and control group (52 cases,without occluder). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, stone escape, postoperative ambulation time, hospital stay, the stone clearance rate, incidence rates of postoperative complications, re-operation rate and quality of life [Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36)] before and after surgery were analyzed between the two groups.

Results

There was no significant difference in the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative ambulation time, postoperative hospital stay and re-operation rate at 3 months after operation between the two groups (P>0.05), but the escape rate of intraoperative stones in observation group was lower than that in control group (4.44% vs 23.08%)(P<0.05). 1 month after surgery, the stone removal rate in observation group was higher than that in control group (97.78% vs 84.62%)(P<0.05) and the total incidence rate of complications in observation group was lower than that in control group (11.11 % vs 30.37%) (P<0.05). The SF-36 scores of the two groups were significantly higher than those before surgery (P<0.05), even the score in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05).

Conclusion

Compared with simple ureteroscopy holmium laser lithotripsy, occluder combined with holmium laser in the treatment of middle and upper ureteral calculi can reduce the escape of intraoperative stones, improve the clearance rate of stones, reduce postoperative complications and improve the quality of life of patients.

Key words: Ureteral calculi, Holmium laser, Occluder, Stone removal rate, Complications, Quality of life
