Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the result and related factors of the treatment of kidney stone patients undergoing retrograde nephrolithotripsy by flexible  ureterorenoscopy at Saint Paul General Hospital in 2022. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study on 31 kidney stone patients who underwent retrograde nephrolithotripsy by flexible ureterorenoscopy. Results: The mean age: 48.61 ± 8.31 years old. Clinical symptoms upon admission: Most of the patients were low back pain (90.3%); The mean stone size on computed tomography was 20.8 ± 7.8 mm; The mean time of insertion of the retrograde system into the ureter was 10 ± 1.5; The mean time of lithotripsy was 50.9 ± 11.2 (the shortest was 25 minutes, and the longest was 65 minutes; The mean operative time was 60.8 ± 8.6 minutes; The complication was: 9.7%; The overall outcome after surgery: The good result was 83.9%, the average result was 16.1%. Conclusion: retrograde nephrolithotripsy by flexible ureterorenoscopy was a safe and effective method for kidney stone patients.
