Summary

There is a global increase in the prevalence of urolithiasis in children attributed to lifestyle changes, dietary habits, climate changes, childhood obesity, and the wider availability of ultrasonography. The rising incidence of the disease with its recurrent nature emphasizes the need for minimally invasive therapeutic options. Patients in whom RIRS has been performed in the last four years with increasing experience will be presented, and complications, stone-free rates, and technical details will be discussed.

This retrospective Cohort study included children who underwent RIRS. Medical history, serum electrolytes, midstream urine culture, urinalysis, serum creatinine, complete blood count, and coagulation assessments were performed preoperatively. Ultrasonography (USG) was performed three months, 6 months, and 1 year after the procedures to evaluate stone recurrence and hydronephrosis. The investigators analyzed the stone-free rate ,complications, and the conversion to open procedure

Conditions

  • Renal Stone
  • Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery

All RIRS procedures were performed under general anesthesia with direct videoscopic and fluoroscopic guidance. The decision to use a flexible or semirigid ureteroscope depended on the location of the Stones. If this was not enough to pass the ureteroscope, we placed a JJ catheter for passive dilatation. Stones were fragmented using a holmium-YAG laser and grasped by a stone basket when applicable. Contrast injection was performed at the end of the procedures to confirm the absence of extravasation and stone-free status. Ultrasonography (USG) was performed three months, six months, and one year after the procedures to evaluate stone recurrence and hydronephrosis.
