[TACTICS OF TREATMENT OF PATIENTS FOR ONCOLOGICAL DISEASES IN IATROGENIC INJURY OF UPPER URINARY WAYS]
Klinichna Khirurhiia
|March 8, 2016
Summary
This study analyzed 119 patients with oncological diseases and iatrogenic ureter injuries (IIU). Treatment strategies varied, including plastic operations, reconstructive surgery, and palliative nephrostomy, based on injury specifics and patient condition.
Area of Science:
- Urology
- Oncology
- Surgical Complications
Context:
- Iatrogenic ureter injuries (IIU) are a known complication in oncological disease treatment.
- Management of IIU requires careful consideration of oncological status and urinary tract anatomy.
Purpose:
- To analyze the outcomes of surgical interventions for iatrogenic ureter injuries in patients with oncological diseases.
- To evaluate the factors influencing the selection of operative treatment methods for IIU.
Summary:
- The study reviewed 119 patients with oncological diseases and IIU.
- Treatment included plastic operations (40.3%), reconstructive surgery (19.3%), restoration (2.5%), and palliative nephrostomy (34.5%).
- Treatment selection was based on oncological disease efficacy, IIU mechanism, obstruction level, injury characteristics, urinary tract changes, and patient severity.
Impact:
- Findings guide surgical decision-making for complex iatrogenic ureter injuries in cancer patients.
- Optimized treatment strategies can improve patient outcomes and reduce morbidity associated with IIU.

In managing urinary tract infections (UTIs) in nursing, a comprehensive assessment is essential. Begin by gathering subjective data, such as the patient’s complaints of dysuria (painful urination), urinary frequency, urgency, suprapubic pain, and any lower abdominal discomfort. This information can be complemented by questions regarding previous UTIs, sexual activity, and personal hygiene practices, which can provide insight into risk factors. Objective assessment should focus on signs...

Management of renal calculi focuses on effective strategies like tailored nutrition and hydration therapy. Adjusting diet and fluid intake reduces stone formation and recurrence, making these interventions simple yet powerful in kidney stone prevention and management.Understanding Kidney StonesKidney stones form when calcium, oxalate, uric acid, and cystine concentrate and crystallize in urine. Factors contributing to their formation include genetic predisposition, certain medical conditions,...

AssessmentSubjective Data: Obtain a detailed health history, including any recent or chronic urinary tract infections, periods of immobilization, previous episodes of renal calculi, and medical conditions such as gout, benign prostatic hyperplasia, or hyperparathyroidism. Review the medication history for drugs that may influence stone formation, including allopurinol, analgesics, loop diuretics, or thiazide diuretics. Document the use of long-term indwelling catheters and any past surgical...

Procedures for Kidney StonesMedical intervention is necessary when kidney stones or renal calculi are too large to pass spontaneously (typically greater than 5 millimeters) when stones are accompanied by symptomatic infection (such as fever or pyelonephritis), when they impair kidney function, or when they cause persistent symptoms like severe pain, nausea, or urinary retention. Additionally, patients with only one kidney or those who cannot be treated with medical management also require...

A healthcare provider can diagnose a urinary tract infection (UTI) through several methods:Medical History and Symptoms: The provider will take a detailed medical history and ask about symptoms such as frequent urination, burning sensation during urination, and lower abdominal pain.Urinalysis: A clean-catch urine sample is collected in a sterile container and tested for the presence of bacteria, white blood cells (leukocytes), nitrites, blood, and protein. The presence of leukocytes and...

The diagnosis of renal calculi involves several imaging techniques, including non-contrast CT scans and ultrasound. These methods help visualize kidney stones, assess their size and location, and detect possible obstructions. Additionally, Measuring urine pH is useful for diagnosing specific stone types, such as struvite (alkaline pH) and uric acid stones (acidic pH). Cystine stones are primarily linked to cystinuria, a genetic condition. A urinalysis helps detect blood in the urine (hematuria)...
