Delayed or Direct Ureteroscopy in the Treatment of Pediatric Calcular Anuria

February 2, 2015 updated by: mohammed said elsheemy, Cairo University

Staged Ureteroscopy After Initial Urinary Drainage Versus Direct Ureteroscopy in the Treatment of Pediatric Obstructive Calcular Anuria

To compare staged ureteroscopy following initial urinary drainage versus direct ureteroscopy without initial urinary drainage in the treatment of obstructive calcular anuria with acute renal failure in children.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

To compare staged ureteroscopy following initial urinary drainage and stabilization of renal functions using percutaneous nephrostomy or double J stent versus direct ureteroscopy without initial urinary drainage in the treatment of obstructive calcular anuria with acute renal failure due to ureteric calculi in children.

  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: initial urinary drainage
initial urinary drainage to stabilize renal functions before ureteroscopy
initial urinary drainage is done using nephrostomy or double J stent to stabilize renal functions. this is followed several days later by definitive ureteroscopy.
Active Comparator: direct ureteroscopy
direct ureteroscopy without initial urinary drainage
direct ureteroscopy is done without initial urinary drainage and before return to normal chemistry. this is followed follow-up of renal functions for several days before treatment of the contralateral side.
