Abstract:Objective To investigate the clinical value and experience of holmium laser lithotripsy combined with cyst internal incision and drainage under flexible ureteroscope in treatment of renal calculi complicated with ipsilateral renal cyst.Methods From July 2013 to July 2018, 37 patients with renal calculi complicated with ipsilateral renal cyst who met the selection criteria were selected. All the patients were randomly divided into study group and control group. Patients in the study group were treated with holmium laser lithotripsy combined with cyst internal incision and drainage under flexible ureteroscope. Patients in the control group were treated with holmium laser lithotripsy under flexible ureteroscope first, and then underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic renal cyst unroofing and decompression. Statistical analysis and comparison were made on the data of operation time, total hospitalization days, incidence of surgical complications, postoperative residual stone rate and cyst recurrence rate one year after operation.Results The study group was better than the control group in the operation time and total hospitalization days (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in the occurrence of operation complications, the rate of postoperative residual stones and the rate of cyst recurrence one year after operation (P > 0.05).Conclusion Holmium laser lithotripsy combined with cyst internal incision and drainage under flexible ureteroscope has advantages in the clinical treatment of renal calculi complicated ipsilateral renal cyst, which is worth popularizing.
