    Aims: To evaluate the effect of pre-RIRS ESWL on the efficiency and safety of RIRS in the treatment of proximal ureter stones. Methods: The patients in the study population were divided into two groups. Group-1 was composed of patients who had undergone ESWL for proximal ureter stones before RIRS and Group-2 was composed of patients who directly underwent RIRS without any prior ESWL. The clinical and demographic properties of the patients were analysed in the RIRSearch database. The operative outcomes, peroperative complications, postoperative complications, hospitalisation time and stone-free rates were compared between the groups. Results: There were 56 patients in Group 1 and 95 patients in Group 2. The demographic and clinical properties were similar between the groups. The stone-free rates, peroperative complications and postoperative complications were also similar between the groups; however, the fluoroscopy time was significantly higher in Group 1 (P =.043). The cut-off duration of 10 weeks between ESWL and RIRS had reasonable/favourable discriminating ability, with a 51% sensitivity and 88% specificity rate for stone-free status. Conclusion: Performing ESWL on the proximal ureter stones before RIRS did not change the efficacy and safety of RIRS. The time between the patient's last ESWL session and RIRS had a predictive value for stone-free status, but did not have any effect on complications. © 2021 John Wiley & Sons Ltd

    Factors affecting Urethral Catheter Placement Following Flexible Ureterorenoscopy: RIRSearch Study Group
    (2024) Cakir, Hakan; Çinar, Önder; Akgül, Murat; Özman, Oktay; Başataç, Cem; Şimşekoğlu, Muhammed Fatih; Teke, Kerem
    Background/Purpose: To investigate the factors affecting UC placement following flexible ureterorenoscopy (fURS) and the effect of urethral catheter (UC) placement on patient quality of life. Methods: The present study was performed in prospective manner from 1st January 2015 to 30th December 2023, and patients with renal stones smaller than two centimeters who underwent fURS were analyzed for study inclusion. Patients’ demographic characteristics, operative parameters, success of procedure, complications, and VAS score were recorded. Patients were categorized into two groups according to UC placement or not. These groups were compared according to preoperative parameters, intraoperative data, complications, success and VAS at postoperative 6th hour. Results: In total, 324 patients were enrolled into the study. UC was inserted in 170 patients following fURS and was not inserted to 154 patients. In the patient group with UC placement, ratio of male patients (p= 0.002), ratio of anticoagulant use (p= 0.002), preoperative creatinine level (p=0.001), stone size (p= 0.001), stone burden (p= 0.001), and ratio of multiple stones (p= 0.001) were significantly higher. Operation time was significantly longer (p= 0.003) and intraoperative complications (p= 0.045) were significantly higher in patients with UC insertion. Need for additional analgesia and VAS score was significantly lower in patients without UC placement (p= 0.004 vs. p= 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that male gender, higher preoperative creatinine level, higher stone size and stone burden, and longer operation time were predictive factors for UC placement following fURS (p= 0.008, p= 0.001, p= 0.001, p= 0.010, and p= 0.001, respectively). Conclusion: The present study demonstrated that UC placement following fURS was associated with increased analgesia requirements and more pain. Moreover, our study demonstrated that male gender, higher preoperative creatinine level, higher stone size and stone volume, and longer operation time resulted in UC insertion after fURS.

    The Effect of Ureteral Access Sheath Use/Caliber Change on Outcomes of Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery, Short-Term Kidney Functions, Radiation Exposure, Ureteroscope Lifetime, and Factors Predicting Insertion Failure: A RIRSearch Study
    (Mary Ann Liebert Inc., 2024) Özman, Oktay; Akgül, Murat; Başaataç, Cem; Cakır, Hakan; Çınar, Önder; Sancak, Eyüp Burak
    Background: The aim of this study was (1) to explore effect of ureteral access sheath (UAS) use on primary retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) outcomes, short-term kidney functions, radiation exposure, and ureteroscope lifetime (URS-LT) and (2) to reveal factors that predict UAS insertion failure.Materials and Methods: Patients (n = 1318) who underwent RIRS without UAS (Group 1), those who had operation with a <11-13 Fr (Group 2), and those with a >= 11-13 Fr UAS were matched (1:1:2) and compared. Stone-free rate (SFR), intra- and postoperative complications, acute kidney injury (AKI), fluoroscopy time, URS-LT, and UAS insertion failure were the outcomes.Results: SFR, which was highest in Group 3 (75%, 71% and 87.3%, respectively; P = .001), was significantly associated with use of >= 11-13 Fr (odds ratio [OR]: 4.2, P < .001), but was not with use of <11-13 Fr UAS (OR: 1.3, P = .3). Group 3 had less need for auxiliary procedure (15%, 16%, and 7.4%, respectively; P = .03). Five percent of patients had a risk of AKI, but only 0.3% developed AKI. Although UAS use was protective against creatinine increase (OR: 0.65, P = .02), increased risk of AKI waas only associated with female gender (OR: 5.5, P < .001). Fluroscopy times were 5, 15, and 87 sn, respectively (P < .001). Short URS-LT was strongly associated with high frequency of lower calix stones (r = -0.94, P = .005), but URS-LT was not correlated with sheathless case rate (r = 0.59, P = .22). UAS insertion success in first attempt was more likely in younger (OR: 0.99, P = .03), hydronephrotic (OR: 3.4, P < .001), and female cases (OR: 1.5, P = .008). But absolute UAS insertion failure was associated with female gender (OR: 2.7, P = .017).Conclusions: Not any UAS use but a higher caliber UAS use may improve SFR and protect against AKI after RIRS. Although UAS insertion failure is seen mostly in men, it may be more challenging in women owing to less efficacy of preoperative Double-J stent.
