Abstract
Introduction: to evaluate the effect of preoperative Silodosin on ureteric dilatation to facilitate ureteral access sheath (UAS) placement and reduction of ureteral wall injury in retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS).
Methods: one hundred and twenty patients with renal or ureteric stones were randomly allocated into 2 equal groups. Group A represents patients who received a 7-day preoperative single dose Silodosin before RIRS while Group B represents patients who received a placebo for the same regimen. Our primary outcome was to assess the success rate of (UAS) placement. Our secondary outcomes were to evaluate the perioperative complication rate, stone-free rate, hospital stay, and cost analysis.
Results: In our study, Silodosin showed a higher success rate for (UAS) insertion compared to placebo with a statistically significant difference (p-value = 0.04). Spontaneous UAS insertion in the Silodosin group was 58.3%, which was increased with active ureteric dilatation to 98.3%. Preoperative Silodosin led to less postoperative pain and analgesics requirements without impacting postoperative hospital stay or stone-free rate. There was less ureteric injury incidence in the Silodosin group compared to placebo with a statistically significant difference (p-value = 0.002).
Conclusion: Preoperative Silodosin facilitates UAS insertion with a protective role against ureteric injury compared to placebo.
期刊介绍:
The Arab Journal of Urology is a peer-reviewed journal that strives to provide a high standard of research and clinical material to the widest possible urological community worldwide. The journal encompasses all aspects of urology including: urological oncology, urological reconstructive surgery, urodynamics, female urology, pediatric urology, endourology, transplantation, erectile dysfunction, and urinary infections and inflammations. The journal provides reviews, original articles, editorials, surgical techniques, cases reports and correspondence. Urologists, oncologists, pathologists, radiologists and scientists are invited to submit their contributions to make the Arab Journal of Urology a viable international forum for the practical, timely and state-of-the-art clinical urology and basic urological research.
