Minimally Invasive Open Pyeloplasty in Children with Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruc-tion: Is There a Need for a Perianastomotic Drain?

Öz

Objective: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is the most common cause of obstructive uropathy or hydronephrosis in childhood. The most effective treatment for children with UPJO is open pyeloplasty. The purpose of this study was to present the possibility of minimally invasive open pyeloplasty with a double-J stent and without a perianastomotic drain as an outpatient procedure in children with UPJO. Methods: A retrospective evaluation was performed in 46 children with a median age (IQR) of 3 (7) years who underwent pyeloplasty for UPJO between June 2007 and January 2022. Age, gender, imaging studies, surgical techniques, trans-anastomotic stent, drain applications, complications, and length of hospital stay were noted. Pre-operative studies included ultrasonography (USG), diuretic renography, and magnetic resonance urography (MRU). Indications for surgery were an increasing degree of hydronephrosis on USG, less than 40% differential renal function, and significant obstruction defined as more than 10% functional loss on serial renal scintigraphy. Minimally invasive open pyeloplasty was performed retroperitoneally by separating the muscles with a mini flank incision without pelvic reduction. No perianastomotic drain was used when the trans-anastomotic double-J stent was applied. Results: Open pyeloplasty and minimally invasive open pyeloplasty were performed in 15 and 31 [33 renal units (RU)] cases, respectively. The median hospital stay (IQR) was 120 (48) hours in 15 cases, while this period was 22 (5) hours in 31 cases that underwent minimally invasive open pyeloplasty with a double-J stent and without a peri-anastomotic drain (P<.01). Of 31 cases, 24 were discharged after <24 (mean 21 hours) hours. All patients underwent multiple USG and diuretic renography, while 28 pati-ents underwent only one MRU. A significant positive correlation was found between USG and MRU. Conclusion: We suggest that minimally invasive open pyeloplasty with a double-J stent and without a perianastomotic drain can be safely performed as an outpatient procedure in children with UPJO.
