NCT03112499

Brief Summary

The main aim of the study is to investigate and compare the possible acute effect of standard PCNL, mini-PCNL and RIRS on renal function. Secondary aims are to investigate the efficacy (stone-free rate), safety (complication rate, long-term kidney function) and other parameters (operation, fluoroscopy and hospitalization time) concerning the 3 endourological operations (PCNL, mini- PCNL, RIRS) for the treatment of renal calculi.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The change in urine NGAL/Cr value

    Urine NGAL/Cr value in all patients undergone nephrolithotripsy with PCNL, mini-PCNL or RIRS technique will be measured using Elisa technique.

    2 hours preoperative and 2 hours postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • The change in urine NGAL/Cr value

    2 hours preoperative and 6, 24, 48 hours postoperatively

  • The change in urine KIM-1/Cr value

    2 hours preoperative and 2, 6, 24, 48 hours postoperatively

  • The change in urine IL-18/Cr value

    2 hours preoperative and 2, 6, 24, 48 hours postoperatively

  • The difference in the values of urine NGAL/Cr, KIM1/Cr and IL-18/Cr between the patients undergone nephrolithotripsy with standard PCNL and those undergone nephrolithotripsy with mini - PCNL technique

    2, 6, 24, 48 hours postoperatively

  • The difference in the values of urine NGAL/Cr, KIM1/Cr and IL-18/Cr between the patients undergone nephrolithotripsy with standard PCNL and those undergone nephrolithotripsy with RIRS technique

    2, 6, 24, 48 hours postoperatively

  • +9 more secondary outcomes

Interventions

PCNLPROCEDURE

Under general anesthesia and patient in prone position, with the use of a flexible cystoscope an open-ended ureteral catheter 5F / 70cm is positioned to the proximal ureter. Retrograde pyelography is performed and the most appropriate calyx is accessed with the use of ultrasound, under fluoroscopic guidance. A 0.035 guide wire is inserted into the ureter and then replaced with an extra stiff wire. Using either balloon (20 atm) or Amplatz serial dilators a 30F access channel is created. Lithotripsy is performed using ultrasound lithotripter and stone fragments are removed by grasping forceps. At the end of the operation a 18F Council type catheter is placed into the kidney for drainage of urine and an indwelling JJ catheter is inserted in the ipsilateral ureter. Council and JJ catheter are removed,in the absence of complications, the second and tenth postoperative day, respectively.

PCNL Group
mini-PCNLPROCEDURE

Under general anesthesia and patient in prone position, with the use of a flexible cystoscope an open-ended ureteral catheter 5F / 70cm is positioned to the proximal ureter. Retrograde pyelography is performed and the most appropriate calyx is accessed with the use of ultrasound, under fluoroscopic guidance. A 0.035 guide wire is inserted into the ureter and then replaced with an extra stiff wire. Using Amplatz serial dilators a 16F access channel is created. Lithotripsy is performed using using 270mm Ho: YAG laser fiber and stone fragments are removed by grasping forceps. At the end of the operation a 10F nephrostomy tube is placed into the kidney for drainage of urine and an indwelling JJ catheter is inserted in the ipsilateral ureter. Nephrostomy tube and JJ catheter are removed, in the absence of complications, the second and tenth postoperative day, respectively.

mini-PCNL Group
RIRSPROCEDURE

Under general anesthesia and patient in lithotomy position, a 0.035 hydrophilic safety wire is inserted in the ureter under fluoroscopic guidance. Subsequently 8-10 F dilators are used for dilation of the ureter.Insertion of a second working wire follows above which a 14F ureteral sheath is placed. Lithotripsy with a flexible ureteroscope using 270mm Ho: YAG laser fiber follows.Remaining stone fragments are removed by a 2,2F nitinol basket. At the end of the operation a JJ indwelling ureteral catheter is placed over the safety wire. Discharge is performed in the absence of complications, the first postoperative day while JJ catheter is removed on the 10th postoperative day.
