Abstract:Abstract: Objective To investigate the applicability and feasibility of transurethral flexible ureteroscopic holmium laser internal incision and drainage in the treatment of parapelvic cysts. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the medical records of 11 patients with parapelvic cysts from January 2016 to January 2018, including 5 males and 6 females. The mean age was 58.8 years (range from 45 ~ 73). The cysts were located in the left side in 3 cases, the right side in 5 cases, and bilateral in 3 cases. The diameter ranges from 3.9 ~ 7.8 cm and the average was 5.2 cm. There were 7 cases with unilateral or bilateral renal calculi, 2 cases with renal insufficiency, and 1 case with right hydronephrosis, left ureteral calculi, bladder calculi and polycystic kidney respectively. 11 cases underwent transurethral flexible ureteroscope holmium laser internal incision and drainage after general anesthesia, and holmium laser lithotripsy was performed in some patients with ureterolithiasis. Firstly, the zebra guide wire was retained in the operation and the cook ureter soft mirror sheath was inserted along the zebra guide wire to the junction of the renal pelvis. The Olympus electronic ureteroscope was inserted into the soft mirror ureter sheath to enter the renal pelvis. Secondly, the 200 um holmium laser fiber was used to vaporize the thin part of the renal pelvis wall where the cyst was extruded obviously to ensure the patency of local drainage. Last, the zebra guide wire was placed into the incised capsule through the ureteroscope, the sheath tube was removed, and the double J tube was retained for drainage. Results All the 11 operations were successfully performed without significant complications during and after operation. After 3 ~ 24 months of follow-up, 4 cases with lumbago symptoms were relieved and 2 cases of hematuria disappeared; 8 cases of cysts disappeared, 3 cases of cysts decreased significantly compared with the preoperative period, and 2 cases with renal insufficiency, the serum creatinine level decreased steadily, and 1 case with hydronephrosis was obviously relieved. Conclusion Transurethral flexible ureteroscope holmium laser internal incision and drainage is effective, safe and reliable in the treatment of parapelvic cyst.
