“…Postoperative hospital stay in days was 3.40±0.86 in group A and that was 3.40±0.72 in group B which was statistically not significant. Studies conducted by Kalpee et al(2012) and Nour et al(2014) have found the similar result to this study in regards of duration of postoperative hospital stay.…”

“…Overall stone free rate/success rate in this study was 93.3% (in 28 patients, complete clearance has occurred) in group A and that was 86.7% (in 26 patients, complete clearance has occurred) in group B. The success rate of stone clearance in studies conducted by Kalpee et al (2012), Nour et al(2014) and Harrech et al (2014) were approximately similar.So, present study is similar to that of previous studies.…”

Background: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a common procedure for the removal of renal stones larger than 2 cm size with the advantages of lower morbidity rates, decrease in post-operative pain with faster post-operative recovery & thereby less duration of postoperative hospital stay. One of the fundamental steps of PCNL is the creation of the nephrostomy access. It can be done either by single shot dilatation or by multi-increment serial dilatation technique. Objectives: To compare the outcome of PCNL done by single versus serial dilatation technique with specific reference to renal access time, total operative time, stone clearance rate, postoperative haematuria and duration of postoperative hospital stay. Methods: It was a prospective interventional study with a sample size of sixty where odd number patients were included in group A (PCNL by single shot dilatation technique) & even number patients were in group B (PCNL by serial dilatation technique). After meticulous checking and rechecking, collected data were compiled and statistical analysis was done using computer based software SPSS (statistical package for social science, Version- 16) and Students t-test and Chi-square test were applied for hypothesis testing. ‘P’ value <0.05 was considered as significant. Results: Comparison between the two groups regarding stone size, stone clearance rate, postoperative haematuria and postoperative hospital stay were not statistically significant (p> 0.05). But mean renal access time in minutes (group A was 3.43 ± 1.14 and group B was 4.20 ± 1.37) and the mean operative time in minutes (group A was 91.13 ± 19.08 and group B was 101.67 ± 15.81) between the groups were statistically significant (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Percutaneous nephrostomy access can be successfully performed by single shot dilatation technique during PCNL with the advantages of shorter renal access time and total operative time.

Background: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is gold standard technique for the treatment of renal calculi larger than 2 cm or complex renal calculi. Establishment of nephrostomy tract is the important step during PCNL. Hence, this study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of single-step dilatation in patients with renal calculi undergoing PCNL. Methods: This is a prospective, single-center study conducted between August 2014 and December 2017. Patient who underwent PCNL using single-step dilatation between the study period were included in the study. Demographic details, stone characteristics, operative time dilatation time, radiation exposure time, rate of complication and blood transfusion were recorded. Data was analyzed and reported using summary statistics. Results: A total of 332 patients were enrolled in this study. The mean (SD) age was 42.46 (15.53) years and 181 (54.52%) patients were male. Overall, stone clearance rate was 92%. The mean (SD) operative time was 62.74 (29.61) minutes, tract dilatation time was 2.18 (1.05) minutes, and the radiation exposure time was 12.68 (6.45) seconds. Blood transfusion was required in 12(3.6%) patients. No major complications were reported during post-operative period. Conclusion: Single-step dilatation technique is safe, economical and feasible technique with added advantage of lesser time of dilatation, lesser radiation exposure and lesser chance of blood transfusion.

“…Besides, the necessity of fluoroscopic check while 8/10 dilator/sheat set, dual-lumen ureteral catheter and ZebraTM angled type guidewire is inserted can increase the amount of exposed radiation. Kidney access time can be longer and the amount of radiation can be higher during the procedure of dilatation by using Amplatz dilators ranging between 10 F to 30 F [22,23].…”
