Combined B-ultrasound and X-ray Guided Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy in Upper Urinary Tract Calculus
Abstract：Objective:To investigate the clinical therapeutic effect of combined B-ultrasound and X-ray guided minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy(MPCNL) in the treatment of renal pelvic and upper ureteral calculi.Method:159 cases with upper urinary tract calculi admitted to our department of urinary surgery from August 2010 to October 2012 were given MPCNL using combined B-ultrasound and X-ray guided localization.Result:Renal punctures were successful and micro-channels established in all patients.Operative time was (68±20)min,blood loss was (92±36)ml;the success rate of fragmentation on 1 session was 97%(154/159) and stone clearance rate was 89%(141/159).10 cases had postoperative urinary tract infection;2 cases had blood transfusion,and no severe complications such as pleural and intestinal damage occurred.Conclusion:Combined B-ultrasound and X-ray localization is advantage in localization accuracy and accurate monitoring of extensive direction and depth.MPCNL is safe,minimally invasive and effective,it is worth generalizing in basic level hospital with some medical equipments and technology.
