Abstract:
Objective To assess the safety and effectiveness of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy(MPCNL) in treating renal stones in patients with congenital anomalous kidneys.MethodsFrom January 2000 to November 2007 a total of 41 patients with renal stones complicated with congenital anomalous kidneys,including 12 cases of horseshoe kidneys,19 cases of duplex kidneys,and 10 cases of malrotated kidneys were treated by MPCNL in our hospital.Of the 41 patients,4 had upper calyx calculi,6 had middle calyx calculi,7 had lower calyx calculi,3 had pelvic calculi,4 had the upper segment calculi in duplex kidney,12 had multiple calculi,and 5 had staghorn calculi.The largest diameter of the stones ranged from 1.0 to 4.0 cm(mean 2.5 cm).Ureteral calculi that were found in 13 of the patients were treated at one time.ResultsThe procedure were completed in all of the cases with the operation time ranged from 45 to 210 minutes(mean 95 minutes),and blood loss ranged from 30 to 150 ml(mean 80 ml).The overall stone-free rate at one session was 85.4%(35/41).One of the duplex kidney cases and two of the horseshoe kidney cases were cured by a second operation.And two of the duplex kidney cases and one of the malrotated kidney cases were treated by ESWL after the MPCNL.One patient,who had malrotated kidney,suffered massive hemorrhage(800 ml) during the MPCNL,and was cured by selective embolization of the renal artery.No severe complications occurred in the other patients.The cases were followed up for 5-12 months,during the Period no patient had recurrence.ConclusionsMPCNL is safe and reliable for the treatment of stones in patients with congenital anomalous kidneys.The treatment must be individualized in terms of the type of the renal abnormalities,and the size and location of the stones.
