Objective: To report the outcomes of percutaneous nephroureterostomies performed in a single center a period of ten years. Materials and methods: We retrospectively collected and analyzed data for 52 nephroureterostomy procedures that were performed from September 2008 to August 2018. We present patient’s demographics, indications for the procedure, type of anesthesia, technical difficulties, length of stay in hospital and complications. Results: A total of 52 procedures including 13 bilateral nephroureterostomies were performed on 39 patients. Taking into account the need for replacement of nephroureterostomy procedures during the study period, total number of procedures was 168. Out of a total 39 patients, 32 (84%) of patients had advanced cancer. All procedures were performed as day cases using sedation and had no immediate or early complications. Ten patients or 16% (27 nephroureterostomies out of total 168 procedures) had minor complications. Conclusions: To the best of author’s knowledge, this is the largest case series reporting the outcome of percutaneous nephroureterostomies. We can therefore conclude that percutaneous nephroureterostomy is a useful palliative procedure to relieve ureteric obstruction, when other measures are not possible, and it has low incidence of complications. However, further studies are warranted to compare different procedures used to relieve ureteric obstruction.

Introduction and Objectives: Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is a rare fibro-inflammatory disease and a cause of ureteric obstruction that leads to obstructive uropathy. Although the mainstay of RPF treatment is medical, ureterolysis becomes a necessity if medical treatment fails or if patients are unable to tolerate side effects of conservative/medical management, including those of ureteric stents. We aimed to investigate our experience of laparoscopic ureterolysis (LU) and omental wrapping as a definitive surgical treatment for RPF. Patients and methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 17 patients who underwent LU between September 2009 and October 2018 in a single institution. Mode of presentation, investigation and interventions were reviewed. Outcome measures were stent or nephrostomy-free rates, post-ureterolysis change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), operative time, estimated blood loss, length of hospital stay, complications and need for additional procedures. MAG3 renography was performed to assess ureteral patency. Results: Among 17 patients, a total of 23 LU procedures were performed in 20 operative sessions. Median (IQR) length of hospital stay was 4 (2–6) days. Median length of follow-up was 23.5 months (range 4–92 months), where 14 patients completed at least 15 months of follow-up. All patients were either stent ( n=9) or nephrostomy ( n=8) dependent before ureterolysis. Some 82.4% patients ( n=14) remain stent/nephrostomy free after LU. Renal function remains stable after ureterolysis with a median (IQR) change in eGFR at latest follow-up of: +7.5 (−8 to +23), ( P=0.74). Conclusions: LU is safe and effective at halting decline in renal dysfunction secondary to RPF. It has reliably avoided internal or external ureteric drainage in most patients. Consideration should be given to early referral to a specialised centre for ureterolysis in the context of multi-disciplinary management of benign RPF, to preservation of renal function and to render patients stent or nephrostomy free. Level of Evidence: 4 (case series).
