OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the feasibility and the safety of medial non-papillary percutaneous nephrolithotomy (npPCNL) for the management of large proximal ureteral stones.
METHODS: We evaluated prospectively collected data of 37 patients with large proximal ureteral stones more than 1.5 cm in diameter treated by prone npPCNL. Depending on stone size, in-toto stone removal or lithotripsy using the Lithoclast® Trilogy (EMS Medical, Nyon, Switzerland) was performed. Perioperative parameters including operative time (from start of puncture to the skin suturing), stone extraction time (from the first insertion of the nephroscope to the extraction of all stone fragments), and the stone-free rate were evaluated.
RESULTS: Twenty-one males and 16 females underwent npPCNL for the management of large upper ureteral calculi. The median age and stone size of treated patients were 58 (interquartile range [IQR]: 51-69) years and 19.3 (IQR: 18.0-22.0) mm, respectively. The median operative time and stone extraction time were 25 (IQR: 21-29) min and 8 (IQR: 7-10) min, respectively. One case (2.7%) of postoperative bleeding and two cases (5.4%) of prolonged fever were managed conservatively. The stone-free rate at a 1-month follow-up was 94.6%.
CONCLUSION: The npPCNL provides a straight route to the ureteropelvic junction and proximal ureter. Approaching from a dilated portion of the ureter under low irrigation pressure with larger diameter instruments results in effective and safe stone extraction within a few minutes.
