Micropercutaneous nephrostomy for intervention in acute upper urinary tract calculi obstruction with hydronephrosis and infection.

ABSTRACT: To compare the efficacy and advantages of mini percutaneous nephrostomy (MPCN), micropercutaneous nephrostomy (MicroPCN), and retrograde ureteric stenting (RUS) in the treatment of acute upper urinary tract calculi (UUTC) obstruction with hydronephrosis and infection, and verify the safety and indications of clinical application of micropercutaneous nephrostomy. Clinical-epidemiological data of patients with acute upper urinary tract calculi obstruction and infection treated in Ningbo No.2 hospital were retrospectively collected from May 2019 to May 2023. 64 patients (20 patients in MPCN group, 13 patients in MicroPCN group, and 31 patients in RUS group) were eligible for analysis based on inclusion and exclusion criteria.
