OBJECTIVES: The aims of the present study were to assess the results achieved by the newly designed ACUCISE cutting probe in the treatment of the PUJ syndrome, to describe its advantages and disadvantages and to determine the possibility of its replacing other previously utilized techniques.
METHODS: The ACUCISE cutting probe was utilized in 10 patients with pyeloureteral stricture. After the stent had been left indwelling for two months, it was removed and the patients had regular control evaluations two months thereafter.
RESULTS: The results have been optimal to date, with complete resolution of the pyeloureteral stricture in 100% of the cases. No significant complications have been observed. Some of the control images are presented.
CONCLUSIONS: In our view, the availability of the ACUCISE cutting probe represents a major contribution to minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of the PUJ syndrome. Its advantages far surpass its disadvantages, some of which can be overcome by the skill acquired from more experience. Its only major drawback is that it cannot be used in children under thirteen because of its caliber. When positioned correctly, the ACUCISE cutting probe achieves a clean, precise and an even cut of the same diameter and extent. It is a useful alternative to the other techniques utilized in the treatment of PUJ stricture.
