Abstract:
Objective To compare the subjective and objective outcomes of flexible ureterorenoscopy (F-URS) and extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for the treatment of inferior calyceal calculi between 10 to 20 mm. Method A retrospective analysis was performed for inferior calyceal calculi between 10 to 20 mm at our institution on a total of 112 patients treated with holmium laser lithotripsy or ESWL from September 2013 to September 2016. Retreatment rate, complications, stone clearance rate and subjective patient-reported outcomes were compared. Result Stone clearance rate was significantly higher in F-URS group compared with ESWL group (86.1% vs 61.8%, P < 0.05). Retreatment rate (44.7% vs 8.3%, P < 0.05) was higher in ESWL. There was no significant difference in complication (11.1% vs 7.9%, P > 0.05). Overall satisfaction score [(2.92 ± 1.24) vs (2.07 ± 1.35), P < 0.05] and voiding symptom score [(3.87 ± 0.64) vs (2.23 ± 0.73), P < 0.05)] were significantly higher in F-URS than ESWL. More patients in F-URS were willing to undergo the procedure again (83.3% vs 55.3%, P<0.05). Conclusion For the treatment of intermediate size inferior calyceal calculi,F-URS is superior to ESWL in terms of stone clearance rate, retreatment rate and subjective satisfaction.
