A tapered 14-french catheter efficiently decompressed the upper ureter after percutaneous pyelolysis. This method promoted optimal pelvi-ureteric healing and improved drainage from obstructed renal pelvises.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Percutaneous pyelolysis involves a pelvi-ureteric incision.
  • Effective management of upper ureteric decompression and healing is crucial post-procedure.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a tapered 14-french catheter for dual internal and external pelvic drainage after percutaneous pyelolysis.
  • To assess the catheter's role in upper ureteric decompression and promoting pelvi-ureteric healing.

Main Methods:

  • A tapered 14-french catheter was used to intubate the pelvi-ureteric incision in 20 patients.
  • The catheter provided both internal and external drainage of the renal pelvis and upper ureter.

Main Results:

  • External drainage of the upper ureter proved efficient in decompressing the ureter.

  • The catheter facilitated optimal conditions for pelvi-ureteric healing.
  • Splintage allowed for sufficient enlargement of the upper ureter, improving drainage.

    • Conclusions:

    • The tapered 14-french catheter is an effective tool for managing patients undergoing percutaneous pyelolysis.
    • This technique enhances upper urinary tract decompression and promotes healing, leading to improved renal pelvis drainage.
