Nineteen obese patients with renal stones were enrolled (group A). The mean stone diameter was 1.3 cm (0.7-1.9 cm). The mean BMI was 35.1 kg/m² (31-41 kg/m²). Patients were placed in the lateral position, with the energy source facing their body posteriorly and the site where the stone was located in direct contact with the water cushion. Success rate (defined as the percentage of patients who were stone-free or with insignificant fragments after 3 months), mean number of ESWL sessions, mean duration of ESWL session and complications were recorded. The results were compared with those of 17 obese patients (Group B) with similar baseline characteristics treated in the standard supine position. All ESWLs were performed using the Dornier lithotripter SII. Both success rate (68.4 vs. 64.7% for groups A and B, respectively) and mean number of sessions (2.2 vs. 2.6) did not differ significantly between the two groups (p = 0.5). Interestingly, the time required to complete ESWL was significantly shorter for group A patients (56 min) compared to group B (73 min) (p = 0.001). No severe complications (including hematoma, pyelonephritis) were recorded. Our data indicate that ESWL in the modified lateral position for renal calculi in obese patients seems to be feasible and safe. In addition, it is faster than in the supine position since it overcomes technical difficulties. Further studies with a large number of patients are required to support our findings.","PeriodicalId":23412,"journal":{"name":"Urological Research","volume":"40 4","pages":"355-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00240-011-0416-4","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"30082186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients with acute hydronephrosis requiring internal drainage were randomized to receive either an antirefluxive DJ or a conventional DJ (7 Fr., 26 cm, polyurethane, Urovision(®), Germany). Mean stone size was 6.64 ± 3.33 and 6.5 ± 3.54 mm. Immediately after correct placement of the DJ, 200 ml of diluted contrast media was introduced into the bladder under fluoroscopic control to detect vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). Patients completed German versions of the USSQ on days 2 and 7 following stent placement, and 1 week after stent removal. The results were analyzed. 13 conventional and 16 antirefluxive stents were placed in 29 patients. Reflux was documented in eight conventionally stented patients (62.5%). Two of the 16 patients with antirefluxive stents (22%) presented reflux. 1 week after stent implantation, the mean pain value was 1.1 in the antirefluxive group and 3 in the standard group (p < 0.062). Flank pain during micturition occurred after 2 days in seven patients (58%) with standard stents and in three patients (33%) with antirefluxive stents (p < 0.23). 1 week after stent insertion, flank pain had dropped to 40% in the standard group and 11% in the antirefluxive group (p < 0.3).

We aimed to assess the effect of tamsulosin and doxazosin as adjunctive therapy following SWL for renal calculi. We prospectively included 150 patients who underwent up to four SWL sessions for renal stones from June 2008 to 2009. Patients were randomized into three groups of 50 patients each, group A (phloroglucinol 240 mg daily), group B (tamsulosin 0.4 mg once daily plus phloroglucinol), and group C (doxazosin 4 mg plus phloroglucinol). The treatment continued up to maximum 12 weeks. Patients were evaluated for stone expulsion, colic attacks, amount of analgesics and side-effects of alpha-blockers. There were no significant differences between the groups regarding stone expulsion rates (84; 92 and 90%, respectively). The mean expulsion time of tamsulosin was significantly shorter than both control group (p = 0.002) and doxazosin (p = 0.026). Both number of colic episodes and analgesic dosage were significantly lower with tamsulosin as compared to control and doxazosin. Steinstrasse was encountered in 10 (6.7%) patients with no significant difference between the groups. 16 patients on tamsulosin and 21 on doxazosin experienced adverse effects related to postural hypotension. Moreover, 2 (4%) patients in the tamsulosin group reported ejaculatory complaints. In conclusion, adjunction of tamsulosin or doxazosin after SWL for renal calculi decreases the time for stone expulsion, amount of the analgesics and number colic episodes. There was no benefit regarding the overall stone expulsion rate. The side-effects of these agents are common and should be weighted against the benefits of their usage.","PeriodicalId":23412,"journal":{"name":"Urological Research","volume":"40 4","pages":"327-32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00240-011-0410-x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"30073235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditionally increased endoluminal pressure is considered the main mechanism causing pain in the upper urinary tract but clinical data are sparse. The aim of the present study was to develop a new model related to mechanosensation in order to describe the geometric and mechanical properties of the renal pelvis in patients with kidney stone disease. Pressure measurement in the renal pelvis was done during CT-pyelography in 15 patients who underwent percutaneus nephrolithotomy. The sensory intensity was recorded at the thresholds for first sensation and for pain. 3D deformation and strain were calculated in five patients. The deformation of pelvis during distension was not uniform due to the complex geometry. The pelvis deformed to 113 ± 6% and 115 ± 11% in the longitudinal and circumferential directions, respectively. Endoluminal pressure in the renal pelvis corresponded positively to the sensory ratings but the referred pain area was diffuse located and varied in size. The present study provides a method for describing the mechanosensory properties and 3D deformation of the complex renal pelvis geometry. Although there was a relation between pressure and pain score, the non-homogenous spatial strain distribution suggests that the 3D biomechanical properties of the renal pelvis are not reflected by simple estimates of tension based on pressure and volume.","PeriodicalId":23412,"journal":{"name":"Urological Research","volume":"40 4","pages":"305-16"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00240-011-0425-3","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"29989045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One hundred and twenty-five patients were enrolled in this study and data were analyzed retrospectively. We set the median duration for keeping the DJ stent postoperatively as 14 days from median value in all cases and compared it to a longer duration group (>15 days) and a shorter duration group (<14 days) in terms of febrile complications, urinalysis, and the need to give antibiotics at the time of DJ stent removal. The duration of DJ stenting was from 3 to 61 (median 14) days. Thirteen patients had adverse events related to DJ stent removal (febrile complications, 11 patients; lumbago, 2 patients). Thirty-one patients were given antibiotics at the time of DJ stent removal. Patients with longer durations (>15 days) of DJ stenting had a significantly higher ratio of adverse events such as fever or lumbago (p = 0.041). In conclusion, this study demonstrated that shorter duration (<14 days) DJ stent use after UL may decrease adverse events and require less antibiotic use.
