Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of ultrasound-guided and fluoroscopy in percutaneous nephrostomy(PNT). Methods: By ultrasound-guided and fluoroscopy percutaneous placement of nephrostomy catheters were performed in 53 patients with hydronephrosis or pyonephrosis by using Seldinger technique. Results: Fifty-eight kidneys in 53 patients were punctured by percutaneous way, including 30 right kidneys, 22 left kidneys and 3 bilateral kidneys. Fifty-six kidneys(96.6%, 56/58) were successfully puncture at first attempt. The punctures in contralateral kidneys were performed in 2 patients because of the failure of first attempt. Fifty-six nephrostomy catheters(100%, 56/56) were successfully implanted by fluoroscopy-guidance. The improvement of renal function was obvious after operation, and no severe complications occurred. Conclusion: PNT by ultrasound-guided and fluoroscopy is a fast, safe, microinvasive and effective procedure for patients with obstructive uropathy, and this method is worth generalizing and applying.
