Aim:
to study an adaptability of the Clavien-Dindo classification of complications for contact ureterolithotripsy.
Materials And Methods:
A total of 506 patients with ureteric stones who were undergone 545 endoscopic interventions in the Urologic Department of "MONIKI" named after M.F. Vladimirsky were included in retrospective analysis.
Results:
Complications of grade 1, II, IIIa and IIIb were noted in 39 (7.1%), 24 (4.3%), 15 (2.8%) and 14 cases (2,6%), respectively. Among the complications of grade IVa, an acute pyelonephritis was complicated by the septic shock. The complication of grade IVb developed in 1 case (0.2%). There were no complications of Grade V. The Clavien-Dindo classification allows to grade only postoperative complications and attempts to adapt it for the assessment of intraoperative complications can lead to the distortion of study results.
Conclusion:
The uncontrolled use of the Clavien-Dindo classification in all areas of surgery can lead to a decrease in its accuracy, thereby reducing its value as fairly universal tool. In our opinion, a further work aimed to the development of strict criteria for the different grades of complications of the Clavien-Dindo classifications is needed. We believe it is possible and necessary to develop a single tool for the assessment of complications of typical interventions within a single surgical area.
