Abstract:
Objective To discuss the management of renal vein trauma in the percutaneous ne-phrostomy (PCN) procedure.Methods Three cases with renal vein trauma by PCN or malposition of nephrostomic catheter were reviewed.Case 1 was a patient with staghorn calculi.There was mas-sive hemorrhage after the puncture and the dilatation during PCN.Then the nephrostomy catheter was clamped.The post-operative CT scan showed the nephrostomy catheter passed the inferior vena cava to the right external jugular vein.Case 2 was a patient with a 3 cm calculus in the inferior calice of the right kidney.A massive haemorrage occurred after the dilatation by the 16 F sheath guided by ultra-sound during PCN.The nephrostomic catheter was found in the renal vein by X-ray film.Case 3 was a patient with bilateral hydronephrosis complicating chronic renal failure,which caused by the meta-static of the gastric carcinoma.After the puncture,the massive hemorrage appeared and a nephros-tomic catheter was placed and then clamped.The catheter was seen in the renal vein confirmed by the X-ray.For all 3 patients,the catheter was withdrawn carefully monitored by the X-ray until the place of the renal vein perforation during the first 24-48h.Then it was withdrawn 3 to 4 cm each time un-til reach the pelvic.Results The hemorrhage was well controlled and nobody needed the surgical in-tervention.There was no renal function aggravation in these 3 patients.Conclusions The renal vein trauma during the echo-guide PCN procedure can be treated by clamping the nephrostomy catheter and withdrawing it gradually.Thus,the surgical intervention can be avoided and this method will not im-pair the renal function.
