Minimally invasive open dismembered pyeloplasty technique: Miniature incision, muscle-splitting dissection, and nopelvis reduction in children.
Asian Journal of Urology 2019 July
Objective: To report the outcomes and complications of open dismembered Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasty with miniature incision in treating children's ureteropelvic junction obstruction.
Methods: Between March 2007 and April 2011, 109 children with a mean age of 2 years and 8 months old with ureteropelvic junction obstruction underwent open dismembered pyeloplasty. Clinical manifestations, radiographic assessments, incision size, surgery time, hospital stay, and complication rate were recorded. All patients had a documented ureteropelvic junction obstruction (having T1/2 more than 20 min in diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid [DTPA] scan) with symptomatic stenosis or decreased kidney function (differential function <40%). Pyeloplasty was done by a retroperitoneal flank approach with miniature incision without pelvis reduction. One surgeon did all the surgeries. Success rate and complications were assessed in a 3-year follow-up.
Results: Mean surgery time was 52 min (47-60 min). Incision size was 18-28 mm. Mean hospital stay was 3 days (2-8 days). The surgery was successful in 98.2% of patients with a mean follow-up time of 36 months (success was defined as disappearance of symptoms, if present, with improved ultrasound imaging results or Reno graphic parameters). The complication rate was 7.33%, including urinary leakage, double-J urethral stent dislocation and infection.
Conclusion: Open dismembered pyeloplasty is a safe, technically feasible and effective therapy in treatment of children's ureteropelvic junction obstruction. It takes a short time to do, requires a small incision and has few complications and a short recovery period.
