“…In order to evaluate stone clearance, patients were examined by urinary tract non-contrast CT (CT cuts were 3mm) at one day and one month postoperatively. SFR was de ned as no stone fragments remaining or fragments with a diameter < 4 mm on CT scan [11,12] . The operative time was de ned as the duration of anesthesia from the beginning to the end.…”

Purpose To compare the efficacy and safety of vacuum suction semirigid ureteroscopic (Sotn-URS) laser lithotripsy and flexible ureteroscopic (F-URS) laser lithotripsy for the treatment of unilateral upper ureteral calculi with a diameter ³ 15mm. Methods This study included 153 patients with upper ureteral calculi who met the criteria. Of these, Sotn-URS laser lithotripsy was performed on 96 patients, while F-URS laser lithotripsy was administered to 57 patients. The clinical data of the two groups were retrospectively analyzed and compared to the operative time, postoperative hospitalization time, stone-free rate (SFR), complication rate and success rate of ureteral sheath (UAS) placement of the two groups. Based on calculi computed tomography(CT) numerical value ≥1000 Hu, subgroup analysis was carried out for both groups. Results Surgery was successfully completed in both groups. In comparison to the F-URS group, the Sotn-URS group witnessed a reduced operative time (45.82±18.81 vs. 54.21±23.05 min; P = 0.036), a higher SFR of one day after operation (47.92% vs. 24.56%; P = 0.004), a higher SFR of one month after operation (87.50% vs. 73.68%; P = 0.030), and lower rate of complications (7.3% vs. 19.3%; P =0.026). When the success rate of UAS placement and postoperative hospitalization time were compared, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Subgroup analyses revealed that the Sotn-URS group had a shorter operative time,a higher SFR of one day after operation, and fewer complications than the F-URS group. (P<0.05). Conclusion For the treatment of unilateral upper ureteral calculi with a diameter ³ 15mm, Sotn-URS presents advantages over F-URS, including shorter operative time, a greater SFR, and fewer complications.

Background Urolithiasis has become a global major disease that affects millions of people every year. The data regarding the disease in sub-Saharan Africa are limited. Our purpose is to evaluate the prevalence, epidemiological, and clinical data related to urolithiasis in Somalia. Methods Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, systematic review utilized Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) on the following sites; PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO host, EMBase, Medline, and Cochrane Libraries, using the keywords “Urolithiasis”, “Urinary stone disease”, “Urinary stones” “Renal stone” “Nephrolithiasis”, “Kidney stone”, “Ureter stone”, “Uretero-lithiasis”, “Bladder stone”, “Cystolithiasis”, and “Urethral stone” singly and in combinations terms like “Somalia”, “Somaliland”, “Puntland” and “Mogadishu” to identify relevant published studies. After removing 57 duplicate articles and those with incomplete published results, 141 articles were screened based on their abstracts and titles. Finally, only six studies were eligible to be included in the final systematic review. Results Of the six articles included, 14,612 patient records were reviewed for urinary stone disease prevalence, patient demographics, radiological stone characteristics, and urinary stone management. The mean patient age was 34.6. Males were predominantly affected compared to females with 65.7% and 34.3%, respectively. Adults (≥ 18 years old) accounted for 87.9% of the patients while 12.1% being children. Reported urolithiasis prevalence ranged from 8.1% to 17%. Of the 1,442 nephrolithiasis cases, 180 (14.6%) were staghorn calculi while 72.4% had a single stone and 27.6% had multiple stones. The mean stone size was 14.13 mm (± 5.96). The majority of the patients, 389 (36.8%), underwent open lithotomy. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) was performed in 234 (22.1%) of cases, out of which 126 (11.9%) underwent standard PCNL and 108 (10.2%) super mini PCNL (SMP). Ureteroscopic pneumatic surgery (URS) and retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) were performed in 122 (11.5%) and 199 (18%) cases, respectively. Conclusion Somalia reported high urolithiasis prevalence. Urological centers in the capital have started using the new advanced techniques for stone management, nevertheless, open lithotomy is still predominantly utilized. No study has detailed patient demographics and stone composition has still not been reported.
