Abstract:

Objective

To compare the outcomes of retrograde ureteric stent placement (USP) and percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) as initial drainage methods in diabetic patients with acute infected ureteral obstruction secondary to calculi.

Methods

From January 2018 to June 2021, 118 diabetic patients with acute infected ureteral obstruction were included. Data were obtained retrospectively and the outcomes were measured by failure rates of intervention, complications, period for return to creatinine (Cr) nadir, admission to intensive care unit (ICU), and all-cause mortality during hospital admission.

Results

There were 118 patients included, and each group had 30 patients entered the final analysis after propensity score matching. Treatment failure rate and drainage effect were similar between USP and PCN group. Both groups showed equivalent outcomes in operation time, pain scores, Cr nadir, time to Cr nadir, time to normal white blood cells, time to normal temperature, and admissios to ICU. However, there were more complications and more patients with complications in PCN group (P<0.05).

Conclusion

Both USP and PCN were accepted options as initial drainage operations for acute infected ureteral obstruction in diabetic patients, but USP would be superior with less complications.
