Abstract:
To explore an appropriate treatment for patients with upper ureteral stone (> 15 mm in size) by comparing the therapeutic outcomes for those undergoing retroperitoneoscopic ureterolithotomy (RPUL) and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).A total of 62 patients with large upper ureteral stone were divided randomly into 2 groups.RPUL was performed in group A (n =30) and PCNL in group B (n =32).No significant inter-group difference existed in age,gender,stone location and size,operative duration or surgical success rate (P > 0.05).Blood loss volume,rate of postoperative analgesic usage,time of hospital stay and incidence of postoperative complications in group A were significantly lower than those of group B (P < 0.05).Thus RPUL offers more advantages and better efficacies.
