Purpose. To ascertain whether retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) is as effective in patients treated previously with open renal stone surgery (ORSS) on the same kidney as in patients with no previous ORSS.Methods. There were 32 patients with renal stones who had previous ORSS and were treated with RIRS in the study group (Group 1). A total of 38 patients with renal stones who had no previous ORSS and were treated with RIRS were selected as the control group (Group 2). Recorded data regarding preoperative characteristics of the patients, stone properties, surgical parameters, outcomes, SFRs (no fragments or small fragments <4 mm), and complications between groups were compared.Results. Mean age, mean BMI, mean hospital stay, and mean operative time were not statistically different between groups. Mean stone size (10.1 ± 5.6 versus 10.3 ± 4.2;p=0.551) and mean stone burden (25.4 ± 14.7 versus 23.5 ± 9.9;p=0.504) were also similar between groups. After the second procedures, SFRs were 100% and 95% in groups 1 and 2, respectivelyp=0.496. No major perioperative complications were seen.Conclusion. RIRS can be safely and effectively performed with acceptable complication rates in patients treated previously with ORSS as in patients with no previous ORSS.

Open renal stone surgery has been largely replaced by retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS), percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL). However, when these methods fail to remove a stone or there are certain contraindications, such as pregnancy and obesity, laparoscopic, robotic or open surgery may still be indicated. In fact, robotic surgery has been increasingly used by urologists for different benign indications including chronic pyelonephritis, neglected ureteropelvic junction obstruction and renal tuberculosis. This article describes a case of robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy and nephrolithotomy for a large amount of small lithiasis in a non-functioning lower pole after failed stone clearance with a single use Boston ureteroscope owing to non-accessibility.

Introduction: Miniaturization of endoscopic instruments has gained wide popularity in the treatment of renal calculi. Retrograde intra-renal surgery and holmium laser in combination has already proven its superiority when compared to other modalities in the treatment of renal calculi. This study was conducted to assess the outcome of retrograde intra-renal surgery in renal stone disease.Materials and Methods: This retrospective study analyzed the outcome of retrograde intra-renal surgery in renal stone less than 2 cm size in the adults above 18 years of age from September 2018 to August 2019 at Patan Hospital, Nepal. The outcome was assessed descriptively on postoperative pain and fever, stone localization, stone size, stone clearance, urosepsis, operative time, hospital stay, mortality, need of the second procedure.Results: A total of 62 patients underwent retrograde intrarenal surgery, out of which 48 cases were included. The mean age of the study population was 32.4± 14 years (19-68 years). Similarly, the mean operative time was 68± 12 (48-124 minutes) and mean hospital-stay was 3.2± 1.1 days. Postoperative pain and fever were observed in 14 (29.16%) & 4(8.33%) patients respectively. Hematuria occurred in 6(12.50%) and urosepsis in 2(4.16%) of the patients. Complete stone clearance was achieved in 34(70.83%) and residual stones were present in 8(16.66%) and clinically insignificant radiological fragments were present in 6(12.50%) patients.Conclusions: Retrograde intrarenal surgery is a technically safe and effective procedure for the treatment of renal calculi, with minimal post-surgical morbidity.

<p><strong>Introduction:</strong> Our aim was to demonstrate the effect of insicion of renal parenchyma during open renal stone surgery (ORSS) on percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) outcomes.</p><p><strong>Methods:</strong> Patients with history of ORSS who underwent PNL operation between June 2005 and June 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were divided into two groups according to their type of previous ORSS. Patients who had a history of ORSS with parenchymal insicion, such as radial nephrotomies, anatrophic nephrolithotomy, lower pole resection, and partial nephrectomy, were included in Group 1. Other patients with a history of open pyelolithotomy were enrolled in Group 2. Preoperative characteristics, perioperative data, stone-free status, and complications were compared between the groups. Stone-free status was defined as complete clearance of stone(s) or presence of residual fragments smaller than 4 mm. The retrospective nature of our study, different experience level of surgeons, and lack of the evaluation of anesthetic agents and cost of procedures were limitations of our study.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> 123 and 111 patients were enrolled in Groups 1 and 2, respectively. Preoperative characteristics were similar between groups. In Group 1, the mean operative time was statistically longer than in Group 2 (p=0.013). Stone-free status was significantly higher in Group 2 than in Group 1 (p=0.027). Complication rates were similar between groups. Hemorrhage requiring blood transfusion was the most common complication in both groups (10.5% vs. 9.9%).</p><p><strong>Conclusions:</strong> Our study demonstrated that a history of previous ORSS with parenchymal insicion significantly reduces the success rates of PNL procedure.</p>
