Background: Historically open pyeloplasty has been regarded as the gold standard for the surgical management of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). The treatment of this condition has evolved considerably over the past two decades resulting in new surgical approaches. One of these approaches is laparoscopic pyeloplasty,this technique aimed to achieve the same results as open surgery,with lower rates of morbidity and complications.  Aim of the study: To compare the operative time,hospital stay,analgesic use,perioperative complications,and success rate between laparoscopic and open pyeloplasty in Al Diwaniya Teaching Hospital. Patients & Methods: From October 2014 to October 2016,40 patients (26 males and 14 females) with Ureteropelvic junction obstruction who had been admitted to the urology unit of Al Diwaniya Teaching Hospital were enrolled in this study. Their ages ranged from 10 to 44 years with a mean age of 24 years. The patients were selected on the basis of standard indications for PUJO repair. The patients were assigned into two groups. Twenty patients underwent transperitoneal laparoscopic pyeloplasty and 20 patients underwent open surgery. The choice between the two types of operation was selected according to surgeon's preference (only surgeon who has enough experience with laparoscopic surgeries perform laparoscopic pyeloplasty,while the other performed open surgery). Preoperative evaluations were done using abdominal ultrasound and IVP. Laboratory tests included urinalysis,urine culture,blood urea,and serum creatinine. Blood group was determined. We compared the operative time,complications rates,hospital stay and success rate of the two groups.Mean operative time was 2 hours and 3 hours in open and laparoscopic pyeloplasty groups,respectively. Mean hospital stay was shorter (24 hours) in the laparoscopic group and (48 hours) in open group. Mean follow-up period was 9 months. Postoperative complication rates were 20 % and 30 % in laparoscopic and open pyeloplasty groups,respectively. Success rates were 95% and 90 % for open and laparoscopic pyeloplasty groups,respectively. Repeated surgery was performed in 2 patients of laparoscopy and 1 of open pyeloplasty groups due to recurrence of stricture.The safety and efficacy of laparoscopic pyeloplasty is comparable to that of open pyeloplasty,with better cosmetic results and shorter hospital stay,therefore laparoscopic pyeloplasty can replace open surgery and may be considered the gold standard technique for the treatment of ureteropelvic junction obstruction in expert hands.

The Mean

Objective: The open Anderson–Hynes procedure has an overall success rate of 90% for ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Laparoscopic pyeloplasty (LP) was developed to reduce morbidity and hospital stay while preserving the excellent results. We report on the results of our experience with laparoscopic pyeloplasty.Methods: Between January 2001 and May 2006, 77 consecutive patients underwent LP performed by one of 4 surgeons at our institution. Patients were reassessed with ultrasound (U/S) or intravenous pyelogram (IVP) at 6 weeks. Diuretic renal scan and U/S or IVP were performed at 6 months, and subsequent follow-up included a U/S or IVP as well as clinical assessment. Patients were assessed for pain and hydronephrosis on radiologic imaging, clearance on diuretic renal scan (T1/2) and differential renal function.Results: We evaluated 73 patients. The mean patient age was 38 years (range 16–71 yr), the mean operating time was 218 minutes (range 110–409 min), and the mean blood loss was 57 mL (range 25–250 mL). Mean hospital stay was 3.0 days (range 2–7 d). The success rate was 90.4%, and failures were mainly due to poor function after surgery (3 patients). Pyelolithotomy was performed concomitantly on 6 patients, which on average extended operative time by 36 minutes.Conclusion: Our success rates are consistent with the LP experience of other centres and are comparable with rates for the open technique. Patients had short hospital stays, and complications were negligible. With experienced surgeons, LP should be the first-line treatment for ureteropelvic junction obstruction.

Objective: To evaluate prospectively the results obtained in 16 patients undergoing laparoscopic pyeloplasty through transperitoneal access. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in the department of urology, BSMMU, Dhaka between the periods of March 2013 and June 2014, sixteen patients between 15 and 48 years old, were treated for ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) via a transperitoneal laparoscopy. All patients had clinical symptoms of urinary obstruction and hydronephrosis were confirmed by imaging methods. Anderson-Hynes dismembered pyeloplasty was performed in all patients. Patients were clinically and imaging evaluated in the postoperative period at 6 and 12 weeks. Results: Most of the patients were male (68.75%) and female were 31.25%. The mean operative time was 127.37 (±15.67) minutes ranged from 95 to 240 minutes. Pain score in first postoperative day and third postoperative day following pyeloplasty were 20.87 (±6.83) and 4.75 (±3.34) respectively. The mean hospital stay was 4.25 (±1.34) days. Anomalous vessels were identified in 4 patients, intrinsic stenosis in 12 patients. Postoperative urine leakage and UTI were seen 18.75%, 12.50% subject respectively. Split renal function and GFR were significantly improved (p<0.05) and improvement of renal functional outcome was 87.50%. Conclusion: Laparoscopic pyeloplasty had the advantages like less postoperative pain and shorter hospital stay. Bangladesh Journal of Urology, Vol. 19, No. 2, July 2016 p.59-63

Introduction Surgery for ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is performed by both pediatric surgeons (PS) and urologists (URO). The aim of this study was to analyze treatment modalities for UPJO and results in relation to the surgical technique and the operating discipline in Germany. Materials and Methods Data of patients aged 0 to 18 years were extracted from a major public health insurance (covering ∼5.7 million clients) during 2009 to 2016 and were analyzed for sociodemographic variables, surgical technique, and treating discipline. Logistic regression analysis was performed for the risk of a complication within the first postoperative year. Results A total of 229 children (31.0% female) were included. Laparoscopic pyeloplasty (LP) was performed in 58 (25.3%) patients (8.6 ± 6.4 years), and open pyeloplasty (OP) was applied in 171 (74.7%; 4.6 ± 5.9 years). LP was the dominant technique in females (p < 0.02); males preferentially underwent OP (p < 0.02). Length of hospital stay was 4.3 days (p = 0.0005) shorter in LP compared with that in OP, especially in children ≤ 2 years (6.7 days, p = 0.007). PS operated on 162 children (70.7%), and URO performed surgery on 67 patients (29.3%). The mean age of children operated by PS (3.5 ± 4.7 years) was significantly younger compared with that operated by URO (10.8 ± 6.5 years, p < 0.0001). Complication rates were independent of surgical technique or treating specialty. Conclusion In Germany, UPJO was treated by LP in 25.3% of patients, which was associated with a shorter length of stay, especially in children ≤ 2 years. Complication rates were independent of the operating specialty and surgical technique. Therefore, LP should be further promoted for the treatment of UPJO in small children.

Objective: The aim of the objective was to present our initial experience and evaluate the feasibility of the novel comprehensive modified laparoscopic pyeloplasty (CMLP) technique based on membrane anatomy. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight patients underwent CMLP from February 2016 to October 2020. CMLP involves the following: dissection of the ureter was based on the fascia or fusion fascia formed by embryonic development. The ureter was separated from the ureteral sheath, and the pelvis and ureter were incised with incomplete amputation. The first stitch was placed between the lower point of the spatulated ureter and the lowest corner of the renal pelvis to ensure correct orientation of the anastomosis; anastomosis of the renal pelvis and ureter was performed using the touchless technique. Results: All CMLPs were completed successfully without conversion. The mean overall operating time was 230.96 min. The median estimated blood loss was 50.00 (interquartile range 20.00–57.50) mL. The average postoperative hospital stay was 9.31 days. The average follow-up time was 24.73 months. No major complications occurred. In 1 case, revision laparoscopic pyeloplasty was performed, but the obstruction persisted after double J stent removal, so ultimately, the double J stent required regular replacement. Another asymptomatic patient with hydronephrosis experienced failed treatment and is still under follow-up. The overall success rate was 95.83% (46/48). The success rate in patients with recurrent ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) was 87.5% (7/8). Conclusions: CMLP is a practical and effective treatment option for UPJO with a high success rate. An advantage of CMLP is the clear surgical field.

Abstract Background The aim of this study is to compare the results of laparoscopic pyeloplasty and robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty in patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Methods Between March 2008 and May 2019, the patients who underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic or robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty in our institution were retrospectively reviewed. Results Thirteen patients underwent laparoscopically, and 12 patients underwent robotic surgery. The significant difference was found in median operative time between laparoscopic group (296 minutes) and robotic group (199 minutes) (P = 0.001). The median time for drain removal in laparoscopic group was longer than robotic group (3 vs 2 days, respectively, P = 0.029). Conclusions Laparoscopic and robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty is safe and excellent success rates in patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction. However, our experience study suggested that robotic surgery improves a total operative time, decreases drain removal time and less intraoperative blood loss than laparoscopic approach.
