Filter by:This is a pilot study to (1) evaluate the effect of Ketorolac on inflammatory response and its impact on stent related symptoms in patients undergoing stent placement procedure and (2) assess feasibility of recruitment, randomization, assessment procedures and implementation of the study intervention.
Advancements in technology and endourological armamentarium provides multiple surgical options for complicated stone patients. To avoid multiple operations and shorten the total operation durations, bilateral synchronous simultaneous stone surgery (BSSSS) has been popularized in recent years. Our aim is to evaluate the preliminary outcomes of BSSSS in patients undergoing supine percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS).
Background/Rationale for the study: Lithiasis pathology is increasingly common because of the change in our lifestyle and our food. Thus, we hold a prevalence for urinary lithiasis 10% in France currently including 13% of the male population and 6% of the female population. The formation of urinary lithiasis is the result of a complex mechanism involving factors anatomical and infectious metabolics. They are classified according to their size, topography and composition. The treatment of urinary lithiasis has changed dramatically in recent years. The recommendations of the French Urology Association (AFU) for the management of kidney stones and ureteral of the adult of 2004 give a certain place to the treatment by extracorporeal lithotripsy (ECL). The ELC is indicated for the first purpose for lithiasis ureteral or renal lithiasis of less than 20 mm, whether or not associated with the setting up of a JJ stent. For kidney stones of more than 20 mm or complex or Coralliformes, the ECL can be associated with treatment with percutaneous nephrolithotomy. In addition, the ECL is indicated in case of residual cholelithiasis 3 months after a first treatment whatsoever. It is found, as the main complication of the ECL, a risk of the appearance of Hematomas under capsular, peri-renal and intra-parenchymatous. Its prevalence is estimated to be between 6.2% and 13% according to studies. ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID less or equal to 250 mg is the usual dosage of aspirin (for the adult), the Marketing Autorisation recognises in secondary prevention after a first myocardial or cerebral ischemic attack related to atherosclerosis. It entrains a reduction mortality and morbidity of cardiovascular causes. Acetylsalicylic acid is currently being stopped 5 to 7 days before the ECL. The interest of maintaining the Acetylsalicylic acid is: - A simplification of the management of patients under on acetylsalicylic acid below (or equal to) 250 mg (No modification of Treatment to be implemented) - A cardiovascular risk decreased by maintaining their initial treatment without any modification. Main objective: Evaluation of the proportion of renal hematoma during the production of Lithotripsy for renal lithiasis, on a 15-day scan, in patients under on acetylsalicylic acid below (or equal to) 250 mg not stopped Secondary objectives: Evaluation of the efficacy of treatment with lithotripsy (Stone free, fragments Minimal residuals) Evaluation of the proportion of hematuria macroscopic post lithotripsy in Patients under on acethylsalicylic acid not stopped. Evaluate the rate of post-ECL complications requiring treatment, Analgesic, obstructive pyelonephritis. Evaluate post-ECL pain due to hematoma or lithiasis migration Evaluation of the evolution of renal function post session of Lithotripsy on the patients under acethylsalicylic acid not stopped. Type of Study: Interventional study, prospective, mono centric, single-arm
This study investigates the efficacy and the safety of Lanthanum Carbonate for the reduction of urinary oxalate excretion in patients with secondary hyperoxaluria and nephrolithiasis.
This is a prospect, randomized control trial to evaluate merits between microperc and FURS for lower pole renal stone
This study will attempt to identify the specific gene (coded in the DNA) and changes (mutations) within that gene that are the cause of monogenic kidney stone disease. This study will help researchers determine the characteristics of the stone disease associated with specific genes and mutations. This information may help develop more effective treatments for monogenic kidney stone diseases.
This study intends to characterize the affect of sodium and potassium citrate in the diet on renal function.
The specific aim of this study is to validate our hypothesis that the magnetic ureteral stents have the same amount of adverse effects as the more commonly used non-magnetic ureteral stents. If this hypothesis would be confirmed then the usage of magnetic ureteral stents would be justified for both reducing patient discomfort by way of fewer cystoscopies and possibly also decreasing the overall expenditures of treatment.
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) has been considered as the first-line choice for the management of >20mm kidney stones. Microchannel percutaneous nephrolithotomy (Mini PCNL) which takes nephrolithotomy channel size less than or equal to 18, was first used in the treatment of children with kidney stones in 1997, then gradually applied to adult, aims to achieve the similar stone clearance rate as the standard channels, at the same time, reduce the complications. At present, the use of percutaneous renal surgery in our country is more than 18F plastic peel-away sheath, with the access sheath with a suction-evacuation function was first used by Guohua Zeng and so on. But there is still a lack of high quality evidence of Evidence-based medical evidence to compare the two kinds of sheath for the safety and effectiveness. Therefore, this study provides a reliable theoretical basis for the choice of the sheath for the treatment of 2-5cm size Kidney, and ultimately benefit patients with 20mm.
This study centers on the treatment of low pole renal stones by flexible ureteroscope and intends to find the key anatomical parameters using a prospective, randomized multi-center trial design and to make a more appropriate standard for flexible ureteroscopy of low pole renal stones.
