    Summary

    Percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) procedures guided by combined fluoroscopy and ultrasound demonstrated a low complication rate. This minimally invasive technique proved effective for treating urinary issues like fistulas, stenoses, and renal stones.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Interventional Radiology

    Context:

    • Percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) is a crucial minimally invasive procedure.
    • Combined fluoroscopic and real-time ultrasound guidance enhances procedural accuracy and safety.
    • Evaluating the efficacy and safety of PCN in a diverse patient cohort is essential.

    Purpose:

    • To assess the outcomes and complication rates of percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) procedures.
    • To evaluate the effectiveness of PCN in various urological conditions, including decompression, fistula management, ureteral stenosis treatment, and renal stone removal.

    Summary:

    • A total of 211 PCN procedures were performed on 189 patients using combined fluoroscopic and ultrasound guidance.
    • Major complications included one hemorrhage and three septicemias, indicating a low overall complication rate.

  • Indications were diagnostic (35 cases) and therapeutic (176 cases), with successful outcomes in fistula drying (100%), long-term balloon dilatation success (50%), and renal stone extraction (80%).

    • Impact:

    • This study highlights the safety and efficacy of combined fluoroscopic and ultrasound-guided PCN.
    • The findings support PCN as a valuable therapeutic option for complex urological conditions.
    • Optimized guidance techniques can improve patient outcomes and reduce procedural risks in nephrostomy.
