Abstract:
【Objective】 To compare the clinical efficacy of double and triple D-J ureteral stents in the treatment of benign secondary ureteral stricture. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 58 patients with benign secondary ureteral stricture treated at our hospital during Dec.2018 and Aug.2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the number of D-J ureteral stents, the patients were divided into the double group (n=29) and triple group (n=29). The clinical efficacy, complications during catheterization, and fluctuations of serum creatinine and hydronephrosis volume were compared and analyzed between the two groups. 【Results】 There were no significant differences in the general data, catheter duration and follow-up between the two groups (P>0.05). The triple group had more reduction of hydronephrosis than the double group [-22.8(32) cm3vs. -7.4(12) cm3, P=0.001] . There were no significant differences in the change of serum creatinine [-8.0(15)μmol·L-1 vs. -4.0(15) μmol·L-1, P =0.657] and incidence of complications (34.4% vs. 41.4%, P=0.588) between the two groups. The triple group had higher total effective rate than the double group (93.1% vs. 86.2%), but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.666). There was no significant difference in the efficacy of balloon dilatation between the two groups (100.0% vs. 90.9%, P=0.407). 【Conclusion】 Both double and triple D-J ureteral stents are safe and effective in the treatment of benign secondary ureteral stenosis, but three D-J ureteral stents can better reduce hydronephrosis. Clinicians can choose appropriate indwelling scheme according to patients’ condition.
