Purpose: The management for urolithiasis in kidney transplantation and urinary diversion is
challenging. We share experience in our institution with antegrade flexible ureteroscopy(fURS)
for these difficult ureter stone scenarios.
Materials and Methods: The surgical technique was described below. All the patients were inserted
10 Fr. percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) tube in the middle calyx before the operation. During
operation, the patient was positioned in the Galdakao-modified supine Valdivia position, similar to
that in endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery(ECIRS). In this position, both antegrade and retrograde
can be performed simultaneously. A terumo guidewire was sent through the PCN then, the other side
of the guidewire was down to the bladder. After that, the PCN wound was dilated to 12 Fr., and an
11/13 Fr. 36 cm access sheath was inserted to renal pelvis via guidewire. In this process, C-arm was
used for checking the proper position. After that, a flexible ureteroscope could be introduced to the
ureter through the access sheath. We disintegrated the stone with a Holmium laser and removed the
stone fragment with a stone basket. After clearance of stone, double J was indwelled.
Results: From January 2017 to March 2020, we retrospectively analyzed the medical records of all
patients who underwent antegrade flexible ureteroscopy(fURS) with difficult ureter stone scenario in
our institution. 1 kidney transplantation and 3 ileal conduit patients with ureteral stone were noted in
our institution. All the patients had stone free after surgery. None of the patients had encountered sepsis
or needed blood transfusion after operation.
Conclusions: Treatment for urolithiasis in kidney transplantation and urinary diversion is challenging,
and the management should be specialized by individual patients. Our experience showed antegrade
flexible ureteroscopy(fURS) is a feasible and reproducible option for treating difficult ureter stone
scenarios.
