Summary

Acute calculous anuria is a urological emergency caused by ureteral stone obstruction in a solitary functioning kidney or bilateral ureteral obstruction. Urgent decompression of the upper urinary tract is required to restore urine drainage and prevent further renal impairment.

This prospective randomized double-blind controlled trial will evaluate whether intravesical aminophylline can facilitate urgent retrograde ureteral stenting in adult patients with acute calculous anuria due to ureteral stones. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive either intravesical aminophylline diluted in normal saline or placebo saline before attempted retrograde Double-J ureteral stent placement.

The primary outcome is technical success, defined as successful placement of a Double-J ureteral stent across the obstructing stone without the need for percutaneous nephrostomy. Secondary outcomes include stenting time, intraoperative complications, renal function recovery, postoperative pain, analgesic requirement, and the need for alternative drainage.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Intravesical Aminophylline

Aminophylline 250 mg diluted with normal saline to a total intravesical instillation volume of 160 mL. The solution will be retained in the bladder for 5 minutes before urgent retrograde Double-J ureteral stent placement.

DRUG

Placebo Saline

Placebo intravesical instillation using normal saline to a total volume of 160 mL. The solution will be retained in the bladder for 5 minutes before urgent retrograde Double-J ureteral stent placement.
