Abstract
Objective: To discuss the differences in the effectiveness and security of kidney stones in overweight or obese patients by mini percutaneous nephrolithotomy (MiniPCNL) and retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS).
Materials and methods: We exhaustively searched numerous databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and CNKI, covering all records from their initiation date until September 2023. This included controlled trials focusing on the use of MiniPCNL and RIRS in the treatment of kidney stones in overweight or obese patients. The gathered data was then analyzed using the Review Manager 5.4 software.
Results: 9 studies including 1122 patients were included. Meta-analysis showed that: The MiniPCNL group had higher overall complications, grade I complications, length of hospital stay(LOS), first stone-free rate (SFR), and final SFR in obese patients, with no significant difference between the two groups in terms of operative time(OT), hemoglobin drop, and grade II complication rate. There were more overall complications, grade I complications, final SFR, and LOS with MiniPCNL in patients with stones > 2 cm compared to no significant difference in grade II complications. MiniPCNL performed in the prone position had higher final SFR, less OT, hemoglobin drop, and no statistically significant difference in overall complications or LOS. Sheaths using > 14 F had higher overall complication rates, final SFR, and LOS, and no statistical differences in OT and first SFR between the two modalities. In the MiniPCNL subgroup aged ≤ 50 years, there were higher first SFR, final SFR, and shorter OT, and in the MiniPCNL subgroup aged > 50 years, there were more OT, LOS, and hemoglobin drop, with no statistical difference in overall complications between the two groups.
Conclusion: Our study showed that MiniPCNL in obese patients had higher initial SFR and final SFR, fewer procedures, but more postoperative complications, LOS, and grade I complications compared with RIRS. Similar results were seen in patients in the prone position, with stones > 2 cm and age ≤ 50 years.
