Abstract:

Objective

To explore the safety and effectiveness of non-fornix puncture during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) guided by ultrasound.

Methods

A retrospective study was conducted on 110 patients with nephrolithiasis treated with PCNL in Yangjiang People's Hospital Affiliated to Guangdong Medical University from September 2021 to March 2023. There were 82 cases in the fornix group and 28 cases in the non-fornix group. The patient's preoperative general information, stone clearance rate, hemoglobin, white blood cells, intraoperative bleeding and complication rate were collected.

Results

All 110 surgeries were successfully performed, with no conversion to open surgery. There was no significant difference in hemoglobin, white blood cells before and after surgery between the fornix group and the non-fornix group (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in whether massive hemorrhage occurred during the operation, operation time, postoperative hemoglobin decline, nephrostomy tube removal time, stone clearance rate and complication rate between the two groups (P>0.05).

Conclusion

Non-fornix puncture during percutaneous nephrolithotomy under ultrasound guidance is a safe and feasible alternative and is worthy of clinical promotion.
