Intrarenal pressure detection during flexible ureteroscopy with fiber optic pressure sensor system in porcine model. Sci Rep 2024; 14:9446.

Abstract
To validate the feasibility of a fiber-optic pressure sensor-based pressure measurement device for monitoring intrarenal pressure and to analyze the effects of ureteral acess sheath (UAS) type, surgical location, perfusion flow rate, and measurement location on intrarenal pressure (IRP). The measurement deviations and response times to transient pressure changes were compared between a fiber-optic pressure sensing device and a urodynamic device IRP in an in vitro porcine kidney and in a water tank. Finally, pressure measurements were performed in anesthetized female pigs using fiber-optic pressure sensing device with different UAS, different perfusion flow rates, and different surgical positions at different renal calyces and ureteropelvic junctions (UPJ). According to our operation, the result is fiber optic pressure sensing devices are highly accurate and sensitive. Under the same conditions, IRP varied among different renal calyces and UPJ (P < 0.05). IRP was lowest at 50 ml/min and highest at 150 ml/min (P < 0.05). Surgical position had a significant effect on IRP (P < 0.05). 12/14 Fr UAS had a lower IRP than 11/13 Fr UAS. Therefore fiber optic pressure sensing devices are more advantageous for IRP measurements. In ureteroscopy, the type of ureteral sheath, the surgical position, the perfusion flow rate, and the location of the measurement all affect the intrarenal pressure value.

Moon YJ, Cho KS, Jung DC, Chung DY, Lee JY. The Consecutive 200 Cases of Endoscopic-Combined Intrarenal Surgery: Comparison between Standard and Miniature Surgeries. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:1971. [PMID: 38004020 PMCID: PMC10673269 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59111971] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is still the gold-standard treatment for large and/or complex renal stones. Endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery (ECIRS) was developed with the goal of minimizing the number of access tracts of PCNL while simultaneously improving the one-step stone-free rate (SFR). The aim of this study was to share the experience of the consecutive 200 cases of ECIRS in one institute and analyze surgical outcomes of mini-ECIRS and standard ECIRS. Materials and Methods: We performed ECIRS for 200 adult patients between July 2017 and January 2020. An ECIRS was performed with the patient under general anesthesia in the intermediate-supine position. Surgeries were finished using a tubeless technique with a simple ureteral stent insertion. Results: There were significant differences in the mean maximal stone length (MSL), the variation coefficient of stone density (VCSD), the linear calculus density (LCD), the Seoul National University Renal Stone Complexity (S-ReSC), and the modified S-ReSC scores in stone characteristics, and estimated blood loss (EBL) and operation time in peri-operative outcomes between conventional and mini-ECIRS. After propensity-score matching, there was only a difference in EBL between the two groups. In logistic regression models, MSL [odds ratio (OR) 0.953; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.926-0.979; p < 0.001], LCD (OR 4.702; 95% CI 1.613-18.655; p = 0.013) were significant factors for the success rate after ECIRS. Conclusions: In patients who underwent a mini-ECIRS, the stones were relatively smaller and less complex, and the operation time was shorter. However, if the size of stones was similar, there was no difference in the success rate, but EBL was lower in mini-ECIRS than in standard surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To systematically review the evolution of techniques, technology, clinical utility, limitations and possible future applications of endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery (ECIRS) for ureteral and kidney stones. RECENT FINDINGS The literature search was performed on 18th January 2023 using PubMed, EMBASE and Scopus. 35 studies were included. Among them, six were reviews. Since its introduction in 2008, ECIRS has evolved and improved. ECIRS can be performed in different patient position, such as modified supine Valdivia position by Galdakao, prone position with split-leg and supine position with good outcomes. Instrument miniaturization has also been introduced in ECIRS making it doable in an ambulatory setting. ECIRS showed shorter operative time, lower complication rate, and retreatment compared with conventional PCNL. Operative outcomes of mini-ECIRS are better than mini-PCNL alone. ECIRS also showed good outcomes in impacted upper ureteric stones. Recently, some studies have explored the robotic-assisted kidney puncture in ECIRS that avoided multitrack surgery, especially in anomalous kidney and staghorn stones. SUMMARY ECIRS is ready for primetime in endourology and can be considered the next gold-standard for a personalized stone approach in complex kidney stones.

Endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery in the prone split-leg position versus Galdakao-modified supine Valdivia position for the management of partial staghorn calculi. BMC Urol 2022; 22:163. [PMID: 36266713 PMCID: PMC9583483 DOI: 10.1186/s12894-022-01115-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate and compare the outcome of ECIRS in the treatment of partial staghorn renal calculi in both prone split-leg positions versus GMSV positions with regard to; technical aspects, success rate, operative time, complications, safety, and effectiveness of both approaches. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between October 2018 and August 2021, 66 patients with partial staghorn calculi were enrolled in this prospective comparative study. Patients were randomly divided according to a 1:1 ratio into two groups. Group A included 33 patients who were treated by (ECIRS) in the prone split-leg position, and group B included 33 patients who were treated by (ECIRS) in the Galdakao-modified supine Valdivia (GMSV) position. RESULTS No significant statistical difference between both groups regarding the mean age (p = 0.448), mean body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.137), mean stone burden (p = 0.435), mean operative time (p = 0.541) and the number of calyces located in branched stones (p = 0.628). The mean hospital stay was 6.71 ± 1.12 days for group A and 6.66 ± 1.10 days for group B patients (p = 0.724). The final SFR was achieved in (29)87.87% and (30)90.9% of group A & B patients, respectively (p = 0.694). No significant difference was detected between both groups in perioperative complication rates. CONCLUSION ECIRS is safe and effective in treating partial staghorn calculi either in the prone split-leg position or in the Galdakao-modified supine Valdivia position, with comparable outcomes and no statistically significant difference between both positions.
