Öğe 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, KeremBackground/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.Öğe Is Psoas Muscle Mass Associated with Failure of Ureteral Access Sheath Insertion and Complications from Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery? A Case-Control Study from RIRSearch group(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2024) Teke, Kerem; Cakir, Hakan; Siddikoglu, Duygu; Ozman, Oktay; Basatac, Cem; Akgul, Haci Murat; Cinar, OnderObjective: To investigate the association between psoas muscle mass (PMM) and failure of ureteral access sheath (UAS) insertion and complications from retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). Materials and Methods: A multicenter retrospective case-control study was conducted that included patients who underwent RIRS despite failure of UAS insertion (Cohort 1) and confounder-matched control patients who underwent RIRS after successful UAS insertion (Cohort 2). For morphometric analysis of PMM, ipsilateral psoas muscle areas (iPMAs) were measured using the coreslicer.com webkit. After comparing demographic, clinical, and complication rates and iPMAs between cohorts, gender-specific median iPMAs were also determined to further subdivide patients in each cohort as either low iPMAs or high iPMAs. Thereafter, patients were also compared in terms of RIRS complications. Results: Cohort 1 included 86 patients whereas Cohort 2 consisted of 124 matched cases. The median (interquartile range) iPMAs were similar between the cohorts: Cohort 1, 11.05 (6.82-14.44) cm(2) versus 11.12 (6.97-13.69) cm(2) for Cohort 2 (P .05). There was a significant inverse relationship between iPMAs with age (r = -0.222) and Charlson comorbidity index (r = -0.180) for all patients (P .05). Perioperative and postoperative complication rates were 8.1% and 16.3% for Cohort 1 and 6.5% and 21% for Cohort 2, respectively. The complication rates were not statistically different between patients with high iPMAs and those with low iPMAs, in male or female patients (P > .05). Conclusions: These results show that failure of UAS was not associated with PMM. Furthermore, since the complication rates were similar between patients with high PMM and low PMM, RIRS may be a reliable treatment choice for sarcopenic patients as well as in nonsarcopenic patients.Öğe Lower Pole Stones Are Associated with Low Stone-Free Rates in Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery: A Myth or Fact? - A Matched Case-Control Study from the RIRSearch Group(Karger, 2024) Simsekoglu, Muhammed Fatih; Ozman, Oktay; Cakir, Hakan; Teke, Kerem; Cinar, Onder; Akgul, Murat; Tuna, Mustafa BilalIntroduction: There are conflicting results in the literature regarding the efficacy of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) in lower pole stones. This study aimed to evaluate RIRS outcomes in lower pole stones by forming matched case-control groups. Methods: The data of 491 patients who were diagnosed with kidney stones and underwent RIRS were retrospectively included in the study. A total of 209 patients with lower pole stones (Group 1) and 282 patients with pelvic stones (Group 2) were matched at a 1:1 ratio in terms of stone burden, stone density, preoperative double-J stenting status, and a previous history of shock wave lithotripsy, yielding 159 patients in each group. A computed tomography scan was performed to evaluate the stone-free status. The primary outcome was stone-free status 1 month after RIRS. Results: After case-control matching, the median age was 49 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 40-58) in Group 1 and 50 years (IQR: 35-60) in Group 2 (p = 0.388). The median stone burden values of Group 1 and Group 2 were 415.3 mm3 (IQR: 176.1-858.2) and 503.3 mm3 (IQR: 282.5-864), respectively (p = 0.100). After RIRS, stone-free status was achieved by 126 of the 159 (79.2%) in Group 1 and 133 of the 159 (83.6%) patients in Group 2 (p = 0.387). The groups were similar in terms of perioperative complications (4.4% in Group 1 and 3.8% in Group 2, p = 0.777), postoperative complications (13.8% in Group 1 and 10.3% in Group 2, p = 0.393), and median operation time (60 min in both, p = 0.230). A longer median fluoroscopy time was noted in Group 1 compared to Group 2 (26 s and 3 s, respectively, p = 0.013). Conclusions: Stone-free rates and complications were comparable between the patients with lower pole and pelvic stones after RIRS. However, lower pole stones are associated with longer fluoroscopy time. RIRS can be performed effectively for the treatment of lower pole stones.
