Overview
Surgical intervention is not recommended for the management of [disease name].
OR
Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with [disease name]. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either [indication 1], [indication 2], and [indication 3]
OR
The mainstay of treatment for [disease name] is medical therapy. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either [indication 1], [indication 2], and/or [indication 3].
OR
The feasibility of surgery depends on the stage of [malignancy] at diagnosis.
OR
Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for [disease or malignancy].
Indications
- The mainstay of treatment for nephrolithiasis is medical therapy. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either:
- Persistent and severe pain
- Renal failure
- Kidney infection.
- Stone fails to pass or move after 30 days.
Surgery
The following surgeries are used for the management of nephrolithiasis:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
Extracorporeal Shock wave Lithotripsy (ESWL)
- ESWL is the minimally invasive surgical option.
- Shock waves produced from various sources like electromagnetic, electrohydraulic, cause stone fragmentation directly by producing mechanical stresses or indirectly by the collapse of cavitation bubbles.
- It focuses all energy onto the calculus to break it.
- The fragmenst pass in the urine.
- There are some side effects and limitations of ESWL:
- Bleeding
- Pain during passage of stone fragments
- Diabetes mellitus and Hypertension development
- Acute kidney injury
- Stone > 1.5 cm in diameter is difficult to treat with ESWL
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy
Ureteroscope
- An ureteroscope is a rigid, semi-rigid, or flexible endoscope that helps in retrograde visualization of the collecting system .
- The ureteroscope has a working channel that allows the introduction of a variety of instruments for stone fragmentation and its removal.
- It is used when ESWL is failed and cannot be used.
- Its an invasive procedure.
Otherwise some form of invasive procedure is required; with approaches including ureteroscopic fragmentation (or simple basket extraction if feasible) using laser, ultrasonic or mechanical (pneumatic, shock-wave) forms of energy to fragment the larger stones. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy or rarely open surgery may ultimately be necessary for large or complicated stones or stones which fail other less invasive attempts at treatment.
Ureteral (Double-J) Stents
One modern medical technique uses a ureteral stent (a small tube between the bladder and the inside of the kidney) to provide immediate relief of a blocked kidney. This is especially useful in saving a failing kidney due to swelling and infection from the stone. Ureteral stents vary in length and width but most have the same shape usually called a "double-J or double pigtail". They are designed to allow urine to drain around any stone or obstruction. They can be retained for some length of time as infections recede and as stones are dissolved or fragmented with ESWL or other treatment. The stents will gently dilate or stretch the ureters which can facilitate instrumentation and they will also provide a clear landmark to help surgeons see the stones on x-ray. Most stents can be removed easily during a final office visit. Discomfort levels from stents typically range from minimal associated pain to moderate discomfort.
