Laparoscopic Nephrectomy in Patients With Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease

Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease is a common kidney disease that affects all racial groups around the world, occupies one of the leading places in the structure of urological diseases and forms a significant contribution to the structure of all causes leading to the end stage of chronic renal failure, disabling patients in this group and hence leading to the inevitability of renal replacement therapy. A highly effective clinical method for replacing lost kidney function is kidney transplantation. Based on the fact that the number of patients with this pathology is increasing, it is necessary to search for and introduce clear criteria for the best care, taking into account the high likelihood of developing infectious complications, hematuria, the absence or presence of diuresis, arterial hypertension in this category of patients. The article reflects the various methods of nephrectomy in patients suffering from autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, as well as how approaches to nephrectomy have evolved. The results of complications, as well as patient and graft survival in domestic and foreign studies, in which bilateral or ipsilateral nephrectomy was used using open or laparoscopic access before, during or after kidney transplantation, are demonstrated. Preference is rightfully given to minimally invasive methods of surgical treatment. Taking into account the already reduced resources of the organism of these patients, the volume and method of surgical treatment should be carefully chosen, taking into account safety, efficacy and risk minimization.

Background. According to foreign and domestic authors, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a disease accompanied by a progressive deterioration in the functional state of the kidneys and occupies a significant contribution to the structure of all causes leading to the end stage of chronic renal failure (ESRD). An increase in the volume of the kidneys and the development of complications significantly worsen the quality of life of these patients. Open surgical interventions are accompanied by a more severe course. In this connection, the question of choosing the timing and method of surgical intervention in this group of patients remains relevant. Aim. To evaluate the results of nephrectomy in patients with ADPKD for the period from 2016 to 2022, performed at the Krasnoyarsk Regional Clinical Hospital. Materials and methods. Within 6 years, 22 nephrectomies were performed in 20 patients with ADPKD. Monolateral nephrectomy was performed in 12 cases, simultaneous bilateral surgery was performed in eight patients. The mean age of the patients was 51.3±7.9 years. Mostly nephrectomy was performed by laparoscopic approach (17 patients), lumbotomy operation was performed in three patients. The need for conversion during laparoscopic operations was not noted. Results. Open surgical treatment was performed only because of uncontrolled gross hematuria and suppuration of cysts. All patients were transferred to the intensive care unit after surgery. Repeated surgery due to the development of bleeding was required in 33.3% of cases. The need for an inpatient stage of treatment was 15.1±2.8 days. In one case, a fatal outcome was recorded. Laparoscopic nephrectomy was performed in 17 patients, monolateral in seven patients, staged bilateral in two, and simultaneous bilateral in eight patients. In 41% of cases, in addition to pain and hypertension, nephrectomy was due to the upcoming kidney transplantation. The average volume of removed kidneys was 3138.74±356.30 ml. The average bed-day was 8.86±2.4 days. Conclusion. The increase in the number of patients with ADPKD and ESRD raises the question of the improvement in their quality of life that can be achieved by unilateral or bilateral nephrectomy. However, there are no clearly regulated criteria that determine the indications for these types of surgery. Despite certain difficulties, we believe that laparoscopic nephrectomy in patients with ADPKD and ESRD is the most optimal.
