Objectives: To determine the frequency of successful guidewire crossing through chronic total occlusion (CTO) in patients having a J-CTO Score = 2 (difficult lesion).Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional study was conducted at the Armed Forces Institute... see more

Endovascular Embolization (EVE) of aneurysms is a very effective and efficient treatment modality. Nevertheless, a few complications have been reported after EVE of aneurysms. Our study therefore evaluated the safety and efficacy of Low-profile Visible In... see more

Indications for stent insertion have increased in recent years since their introduction in 1978; along with increase in their use and hence their complications. JJ ureteral stents are commonly placed for short term for prevention or relief of upper urinar... see more

Background: Indwelling double J ureteral stents are used routinely in the resolution of ureteral obstruction caused by different etiologies. Evaluation of urinary symptoms related to double-J stent indicate that these affect 73-90% of patients. Aim of thi... see more

Proximal migration of double J-stent (DJ stent) can be a reason for failure of its cystoscopic removal. Antegrade percutaneous nephrostomic removal of the stent can be done in such cases. Although the technique is described in adults and older children, t... see more

Urgencias urológicas tratadas por cirugía de mínimo acceso / Urologic emergencies treated by means of minimally invasive surgeryUrgencias urológicas tratadas por cirugía de mínimo acceso / Urologic emergencies treated by means of minimally invasive surgeryLa obstrucción y el éstasis urinario se encuentran entre los temas más importantes de la Urología de todos los tiempos por los efectos devastadores que producen sobre el riñón, incluyendo la atrofia hidronefrótica, las infecciones a repetición y la muerte, siendo el resultado final de múltiples enfermedades. La nefrostomía percutánea introducida por S. I. Seldinger en 1952 y el catéter doble J diseñado en 1978 por Finney facilita el drenaje de riñones obstruidos, mejoran la sintomatología y permiten el estudio y tratamiento definitivo en ocasiones de la causa. Se realizó un estudio prospectivo descriptivo durante el período comprendido entre el 1ro noviembre de 2003 a diciembre de 2008 en el servicio de Urología del Hospital General Docente Abel Santamaría Cuadrado en Pinar del Río. La muestra estuvo integrada por los pacientes que fueron intervenidos por cirugía de mínimo acceso endo-urológico (nefrostomía percutánea y colocación de stens doble J. encontrando como principales resultados, que la principal causa de asistencia a consulta fue por cólico nefrítico; se realizaron más nefrostomías percutáneas en las litiasis ureterales obstructivas en relación con la colocación de catéter doble JJ, en ambos procederes las complicaciones mediatas más frecuentes presentadas fueron las sepsis post-instrumentaciones, la estadía post-operatoria promedio fue de 72 horas.Palabras Clave: Acceso endourológico, nefrostomía percutánea/efectos adversos/método, ureterolitiasis. ABSTRACTThe obstruction and the urinary stasis are among the most important topics of Urology in all times, due to the devastating effects in the kidneys, including the hydronephrotic atrophy, the infections and the death; besides it results in multiple diseases. Percutaneous nephrostomy was introduced by S. I Seldinger in 1952 and the double catheter J designed in 1978 by Finney facilitate the drainage of the obstructive kidneys, the use of these techniques improve the symptoms allowing the study and in occasions the definitive treatment of the causes. A prospective descriptive study was conducted from November 2003 to December 2008 in the service of Urology at "Abel Santamaria Cuadrado" University Hospital, Pinar del Rio. The sample was comprised of the patients who underwent to minimal access surgery (percutaneous nephrostomy and placement of double J. stents). Nephritic colic was the main cause to attend to the hospital; performing more percutaneous nephrostomies in obstructive ureteral lithiasis in relation to the placement of double JJ catheter, in both procedures the most frequent mediate complications were post-instrument sepsis. The average post-operative hospital staying was 72 hours.Key words: Percutaneous nephrostomy, double JJ catheter

Placement of double-J ureteral stents after endourologic procedures and some open urological surgeries are practical and safe. However, when neglected in situ, undesired problems may occur, leading to serious medical and legal issues. Complications from u... see more

Double-J (D-J) stents are widely used in a variety of urological interventions. Forgotten D-J stents may lead to complications, such as migration, fragmentation and encrustation. We report the case of a forgotten stent, concomitant with ureteral and bladd... see more
