To explore the application of tip-flexible vacuum-assisted ureteral access sheath-assisted retrograde intrarenal stone surgery/flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy in children.
A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of a pediatric patient who developed kidney stones following pyeloplasty for congenital ureteropelvic junction obstruction. The child underwent tip-flexible vacuum-assisted ureteral access sheath-assisted retrograde intrarenal stone surgery under general anesthesia. Inpatient records and postoperative follow-up results were collected.
The kidney stones were utterly removed, and there were no complications like infection, bleeding, or secondary obstruction. Moreover, there was no significant damage to the anastomotic site after pyeloplasty.
The use of tip-flexible vacuum-assisted ureteral access sheath-assisted flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy is safe and effective for pediatric lithotripsy.
探讨头端可弯曲的真空辅助输尿管接入鞘辅助逆行性肾内结石手术/可弯曲输尿管镜碎石术在儿童中的应用。
对一名因先天性输尿管肾盂连接部梗阻行肾盂成形术后出现肾结石的儿科患者的临床资料进行回顾性分析。该患儿在全身麻醉下接受了头端可弯曲的真空辅助输尿管接入鞘辅助逆行性肾内结石手术。收集了住院记录和术后随访结果。
肾结石被完全清除,未出现感染、出血或继发性梗阻等并发症。此外,肾盂成形术后吻合部位无明显损伤。
头端可弯曲的真空辅助输尿管接入鞘辅助可弯曲输尿管镜碎石术用于儿童碎石是安全有效的。
