To compare the external validation of four existing scoring systems for encrusted ureteral stents (EUS) and their relationship with stent indwelling time, stone-free rates, multiple surgery sessions, multimodal procedures, prolonged operation times exceeding 120 minutes in total. The data 208 patients who underwent EUS reviewed. All EUSs were evaluated 4 systems: ESB (encrusted stone burden), FECal (forgotten, encrusted, calcified), KUB (kidney, ureter bladder), V-GUES (visual grading...
To investigate the applicability of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia (CSEA) method in RIRS for treatment kidney stone disease and also to compare with general (GA) terms their effects on early postoperative pain levels cost.A hundred consecutive patients who were scheduled enrolled this study prospectively evaluated according methods. Patients divided into 2 groups randomly: GA (N.=50) CSEA groups. Five excluded due patient incompatibility or inadequate anesthesia. The Group recorded...
Objective: We aimed to retrospectively evaluate the effectiveness and safety of flexible ureteroscopy (f-URS), semirigid (sr-URS), shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) treat single 11-20 mm stones in proximal ureter. Materials methods: Patients treated at our clinic for ureter who underwent f-URS, sr-URS or SWL as initial methods were compared terms their clinical characteristics treatment outcomes. Results: A comparison among 201 patients had undergone 119 sr-URS, 162 showed no significant baseline...
Background and objectives The population of elderly adults is increasing globally, due to metabolic changes related advanced age, many experience kidney stones. Flexible ureteroscopy (f-URS) a minimally invasive procedure treat stones, but it not free complications. goals this study were analyze the efficacy safety f-URS in management stones patients aged ≥60 years compare outcomes surgery with same younger population. Materials methods We retrospectively reviewed patient data from 1750 who...
Objective We aimed to determine the effect COVID-19 pandemic on daily urology practice of level 3 centre located in one most affected regions Turkey. also assess anxiety and depression levels patients whose procedures surgeries had be postponed due COVID-19-related restrictions. Methods The number admitted outpatient clinic, procedures, emergency consultation requests, hospitalised total between March 10, 2020 June 15, were evaluated. These numbers compared with same period 2019....
To evaluate the management of prolonged indwelling ureteral stents and newly developed KUB (kidney, ureter, bladder) grading system for classification encrusted in urolithiasis. This study involved 69 patients that had forgotten more than 6 months after urolithiasis treatment. They were categorized into 4 groups based on time reviewed retrospectively. Patients whose stent could not be removed with simple cystoscopy graded according to stone surface area system. The mean was 23.1 months....

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Retrograde intrarenal surgery is used for treatment of urinary system stones. The ureteral access sheath (UAS) to decrease intrapelvic pressure, help with multiple instruments, and facilitate drainage removal the fragmented OBJECTIVE: Assess effect UAS on outcomes retrograde surgery. DESIGN: A retrospective patient data review. SETTING: Training research hospital in Turkey. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We reviewed patients who had undergone between 2012-2019. Patients kidney...
To externally validate and compare Resorlu-Unsal stone score (RUSS), modified Seoul National University Renal Stone Complexity Score(S-ReSC), Ito's nomogram, Retrograde Intra-Renal Surgery (R.I.R.S.) scoring systems for predicting capabilities of both the stone-free status complications in a multi-institutional study.We performed retrospective analysis 949 patients who underwent flexible ureterorenoscopy (f-URS) laser lithotripsy renal stones two institutions between March-2015 June-2020....
Background/aim: The aim of this paper was to determine the general tendencies urology patients and effect COVID-19 pandemic on daily urological practice at tertiary centers located in most affected area Turkey. Materials methods: We retrospectively analyzed data 39,677 (group 1) that applied 6 different large-volume İstanbul for outpatient consultation, surgery, or other procedures 3-month period between March 16 June 14, 2020. distribution number who subspecialty sections clinics inpatient...
Purpose: Management of ? 4 cm sized kidney stone is a rarely seen problem in urology. Few studies are present about this issue. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy(PNL), Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery(RIRS) and open surgery the methods used management. In our study we aimed to compare RIRS PNL management stones.Among patients who had undergone D?skap? Y?ld?r?m Beyaz?t Train-ing Research Hospital, 94 stones were included study. The demo-graphic, intraoperative postoperative data these complications...
Purpose: To compare the effects of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) on postoperative pain their differences in terms need for analgesics treatment 2-4 cm kidney stones. Methods: A total 132 patients who suffered from renal stones size had at our urology clinic between April 2015 2017 were enrolled this prospective study (NCT02430168). Patients randomized into either RIRS group (Group 1) or PNL 2) a ratio 1:1. Postoperative visual analog scale (VAS)...
Objectives: Holmium:Yttrium Aluminum Garnet laser lithotripsy is used in Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery. Fragmentation made with a certain value of pulse energy (Joule) and frequency (Hertz) Holmium the multiplication these values gives us total power (Watt). Devices maximum 20 Watt 30 are clinical practice. We want to compare efficiency, safety pain scores below over device. Materials methods: 60 patients who had 2-3 cm sized kidney stones operation planned were prospectively divided into...
Objective: The aim of this study is to demonstrate the validity and reliability Turkish Form Muscle Dys-morphia Inventory (MDDI). Methods: This research was carried out with 196 professional male athletes which 176 bodybuilder 20 boxer in TRNC. Non-professional have not been taken into study. Beside MDDI, Body Cathexis Scale used for concurrent validity. In analysis internal consistency coefficients item-total correlation were calculated. terms examining inventory, explanatory factor...
To compare the efficacy of different laser devices and power ranges on lithotripsy in retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) for 1-2 cm kidney stones.A total 223 participants undergoing RIRS stones at our clinic between January 2015 2017 were recruited this prospective study (NCT02451319). Two hundred four included randomly allocated into either ≤20 W with 20 device (group 1) or 30 2) >20 3).There was no significant difference groups terms demographic stone characteristics.

Usage of ureteral DJ stent is very common in urology practise. There are some complications according to the increased usage literature. Stent fragmentation a rare complication stent. In this study we present 53-year-old male patient who had previous stone surgery and applied our polyclinic with complaint 3-months-long right side pain. radiologic examination observed that was fragmented from upper end on kidney. We extracted fragmentated part flexible ureterorenoscopy.
