Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Present existed procedure protocol for urinary fistula has some limitations, which can not reflect diseased region, pathological change, or severe condition of patients, OBJECTIVE: To establish the procedure protocol for urinary fistula diagnosis and treatment following renal transplantation, in addition, to investigate its significance in clinical practice. METHODS: A total of 102 cases with urinary fistula, including 67 male and 35 female, range in age from 21 to 57 years. According to the business management mode, we have designed the "five-step procedure protocol" for the diagnosis and treatment of urinary fistula after renal transplantation. Four diagnosis steps consisting of qualitative, located, quantitative and classified, as well as one treatment step. Among 102 cases of urinary fistula, 34 were adopted conservative treatment, including 24 cases with drainage tube and retention type catheter, 10 cases with indwelling ureteric stents at tubal bladder. Other 68 cases received surgical treatment. In 47 cases with simple fistula, 36 cases received ureter/bladder replantation, 11 cases with ureteral anastomosis. Twenty-one cases with complex fistula were treated with surgical prosthesis using omentum majus after repairing. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Among the 34 cases receiving conservative treatment, 2 got urinary tract infection repeatedly, and 5 got the stenosis of ureterovesical anastomotic stoma. Among the 68 cases receiving surgical treatment, 2 had ureteral stoma stricture, 1 ureterovesical anastomotic stoma stricture, and 1 ureteral countercurrent. In the surgical treatment series, 3 cases died from severe pulmonary infection elicited by urinary fistula. 77 cases were available for long-term follow-up, 22 were dropped out. In the 57 cases with simple fistula were followed up for 1-10 years, the transplanted renal function was normal in 40 cases, and 17 cases suffered from chronic rejection. 20 cases with complex fistula treated with surgical prosthesis using omentum majus were followed up for 1-7 years, 19 cases were normal, 1 patient had increased creatinine, which was returned to normal after intravenous glucocorticoid therapy. The design of "qualitative, located, quantitative and classified" standard for urinary fistula diagnosis following renal transplantation, and the establishment of "five-step procedure protocol", make urinary fistula diagnosis and treatment more ordered and standard, which is more feasible for selecting optimal therapeutic scheme.
