Abstract:
Objective To analyze the effects of flexible ureteroscopic Holmium laser lithotripsy on renal function in the treatmen of renal calculi. Methods From October 2010 to March 2012,41 cases of solitary renal calculi (24 males and 17 females) were treated with flexible ureteroscopic Holmium laser lithotripsy ( FURL).Patient's mean age was 51.9 ± 15.9 years ( range from 31 to 88 years).Locations of renal calculi detected by image study were 22 cases in middle and upper calyx,9 cases in lower calyx,10 case in renal pelvis.The mean size of calculi was 16.9 ±6.0 mm (range from 10 to 28 mm).Blood samples (2 h pre-operatively,and then 2 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h post-operatively) were collected and serum NGAL,serum Cys-C were tested Results The measured levels of pre-operative NGAL and Cys-C were 3.5 ± 0.6μg/L,501.7±121.3 μg/L,and levels of post-operative NGAL at 2 h,12 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h were 4.2±0.8 μg/L,5.0±1.0 μg/L,4.9±1.4 μg/L,4.3± 1.1 μg/L and 3.8 ±0.1 μg/L,while the according levels of Cys-C were ( 516.4 ± 126.2 ) μg/L,( 723.8 ± 134.8 ) μg/L,( 770.4 ± 162.8 ) μg/L,(671.7 ± 138.3 ) μg/L and 574.0 ± 116.7 μg/L.Serum NGAL began to increase 2 hours after operation (P <0.05,and reached the peak in 12 hours,it began to decline 12 hours after surgery,but it was still higher at 72 hours than pre-operative level (P < 0.05.Serum Cys-C showed no obvious ascent 2 hours after operation in FURL group ( P > 0.05 ),but increased obviously 12 hours after operation and lowered down after the peak that occurred 24 hours after surgery.Serum Cys-C still remain above the baseline 72 hours after operation (P <0.05). Conclusions Flexible ureteroscope lithotripsy can cause reversible damage to renal function after surgery.
