Abstract:

Objective

To investigate efficacy and safety of tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for the treatment of renal stone and proximal ureteral calculi.

Methods

From Nov. 2016 to May. 2018, the data of 80 inpatients without pyonephrosis underwent PCNL in Lingnan Hospital, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, were retrospectively evaluated. One group treated with traditional PCNL (D-J tube and nephrostomy tube, 40 cases) and the other with tubeless PCNL (D-J tube only and without nephrostomy tube, 40 cases).

Results

There was no significant difference between the two groups for the age, calculi location, stone load, diameter of hydronephrosis, total operative time and stone free rate(P>0.05). The mean postoperative VAS pain score and length of hospital stay were significantly lower and shorter in the tubeless PCNL group compared with the standard PCNL group [(3.4±0.9 vs 5.6±1.4); (7.9±1.4 vs 8.8±1.6) days; P<0.05].

Conclusion

Tubeless PCNL is safe and effective for managing renal and proximal ureteral calculi without pyonephrosis, which has the advantage of reducing postoperative pain and shortening hospital stay.
