Единовременные эндовидеохирургические вмешательства при лечении урологических заболеваний, в случае достаточной отработки методики, являются эффективным методом лечения. При этом они выполняются только у 2,0 – 6,4% пациентов, нуждающихся в таких вмешательствах. Цель настоящего исследования: анализ периоперационных результатов симультанных вмешательств и соответствующих изолированных операций при урологических заболеваниях. Материал и методы проведен ретроспективный анализ периоперационных результатов хирургического лечения 5748 пациентов, прооперированных в период с 01.09.2018 по 30.12.2019. При этом анализировали следующие периоперационные показатели: продолжительность вмешательства, объем интраоперационной кровопотери, время дренирования мочевого пузыря уретральным катетером, частота встречаемости инфекционно-воспалительных осложнений со стороны органов мочеполовой системы в ближайшем послеоперационном периоде, количество койко-дней в стационаре в послеоперационном периоде, продолжительность анестезии. Результаты: выявлены преимущества единовременных эндовидеохирургических вмешательств перед двух- и более этапными вмешательствами урологического профиля по продолжительности, объему интраоперационной кровопотери, частоте развития инфекционно-воспалительных осложнений со стороны урологических органов в раннем послеоперационном периоде и другим изучаемым показателям. Заключение: результаты проведенного исследования полностью подтверждают целесообразность и необходимость более широкого использования единовременных эндовидеохирургических вмешательств при плановом хирургическом лечении сочетанных заболеваний урологического профиля.

Introduction. Patients with bilateral nephrolithiasis are a challenge for the treating physician. Therefore, such patients traditionally are subject to phased surgery to reduce the rate of complications. At the same time, the enhancement of endoscopic technologies and anesthesia makes it possible to perform surgical treatment of bilateral nephrolithiasis simultaneously. Objective . To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of performing simultaneous bilateral percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PCNL). Materials & methods . The main group comprises 19 patients (avg age 45.0 ± 2.25 years) suffering from bilateral nephrolithiasis (13 men and 6 women). The control group include 20 patients (avg age 45.80 ± 2.29 years) suffering from bilateral nephrolithiasis. Main group patients underwent simultaneous bilateral mini-PCNL, control group patients — staged PCNL within two hospitalisations. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to assess the pain severity. Patients noted subjective pain sensations on post-op days 1 and 3. QoL indicators were assessed using the SF-36 general questionnaire, as well as the Russian-language validated version of the WISQoL questionnaire. Results . There were no statistically significant differences between the parameters (the difference between the hemoglobin before and after mini-PCNL was 12 g/l; between the serum creatinine was 18 µmol/l). There was a decrease in total surgery time (121.0 ± 6.1 min) for main group patients compared to (147.0 ± 7.3 min) control group patients (total surgery time during the first and second hospitalisations) and a reduction in hospital stay (4.50 ± 0.23 days) for main group patients compared to control group patients (10.0 ± 0.5 days). Complications observed by us in the two groups were comparable. The valuesobtained on the SF, RE and MH scales in main group patients were higher both on post-op day 1 (67.9 ± 3.39; 56.90 ± 2.85 and 63.80 ± 3.19, respectively) and post-op day 3 (86.80 ± 4.34; 83.70 ± 4.19 and 82.50 ± 4.13, respectively) compared to control group patients during the first and second hospitalizations. Statistically significant differences were also recorded according to the grades "Social functioning" and "Emotional influence" in main group patients (80.90 ± 0.26 and 82.6 ± 0.19, respectively). Conclusion . Simultaneous bilateral mini-PCNL is safe and effective in well-selected patients.

While performing surgical treatment of the localized form of renal cell cancer by means of open or laparoscopic partial nephrectomy, renal warm ischemia is an important issue. Using renal warm ischemia allows to prevent parenchymal bleeding, to optimize conditions for resection of the tumor and to increase significantly the efficiency of hemostasis. However, an important problem is the probability of ischemic hypoxic damage of the remaining part of the kidney tissue during renal warm ischemia and renal functional impairment in the postoperative period.AIM:To compare nephroprotective activity of sodium fumarate, mannitol and furosemide using experimental model of 30- and 60-minute renal warm ischemia in rabbits.MATERIALS AND METHODS:The experiments were carried out on 360 conventional male-rabbits of the "Chinchilla" breed weighed 2,6+/-0,3 kg which were allocated into 10 groups. The control group No1 included intact animals, the control group No2 included the rabbits in which renal artery was not clamped. For the animals from the trial groups (No3-No10) the experimental model of 30- and 60-minute renal warm ischemia was used. In groups No3 and No4 no drugs were provided. Other rabbits undergone renal warm ischemia with a protection by sodium fumarate (groups No5 and No6 - 1,5 ml/kg IV), lasix (groups No7 and No8 - 3,0 mg/kg IV) and mannitol (No9 and No10 - 1,0 g/kg IV). The influence of renal warm ischemia on the renal tissue ultrastructure and the levels of NGAL, Cystatin-C and creatinine in blood and urine were studied.RESULTS:During experimental pharmacologically uncorrected 30-minute renal warm ischemia in animals, edema of the terminal part of microvilli of the proximal tubules epithelium, an increase of lysosome number in the hyaloplasm of epithelial cells, appearance of flaky content of medium electronic density in the lumens of distal tubules and collecting tubules, as well as sharp peak-like increase of NGAL and cystatin-C in blood and urine were observed. Increasing the time of ischemia up to 60 minutes was accompanied by more severe disturbances. In groups where sodium fumarate, lasix and mannitol were used the observed ultrastructural disturbances were expressed to lesser extent, whereas sodium fumarate demonstrated the best nephroprotective activity. After using mannitol the severity of disturbances was less than in the groups where mannitol, lasix or sodium fumarate were not given. Lasix and sodium salt of fumaric acid showed a higher nephroprotective activity. The best results were received in the animals received sodium fumarate.CONCLUSIONS:The studied drugs provided a nephroprotective effect regarding ischemia of rabbit kidney. The effect of sodium fumarate was the most pronounced, followed by furosemide and, to a lesser extent, mannitol. Use of sodium fumarate allows to protect and stimulate the kidney tissue effectively during oxygen deprivation under ischemic state.

To compile this literature review, we studied at least 100 publications devoted to the genetic basis of clear cell, papillary, and chromophobic sporadic kidney cancer pathogenesis. Each of them considered the role of somatic gene and chromosomal mutations in the initiation, promotion, and tumor progression of sporadic renal cell carcinoma, emphasized the importance of determining the mutagenic profile of renal cell carcinoma for the future fate of patients.

Introduction. Currently, a large number of techniques are used in the treatment of patients with ureteral stones: extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL), retrograde ureterolithotripsy (RULT), laparoscopic and retro-peritoneoscopic ureterolithotomy.Purpose of the study. To evaluate the possibilities and effectiveness of percutaneous antegrade ureterolithotripsy in the treatment of patients with proximal ureteral stones in comparison with transurethral contact ureterolithotripsy.Materials and methods. Twenty-eight patients with urolithiasis were treated, who underwent percutaneous antegrade ureterolithotripsy (PAULT) and 27 patients of the control group, who underwent RULT. All patients included in the study underwent a standard preoperative examination: complete blood count and urine analysis, bacteriological urine culture, biochemical tests, and X-ray research methods. Plain urography, renal ultrasound, computed tomography were used as imaging methods. The OLYMPUS URF-V3 8.4 Ch (Olympus Europa SE & Co. KG., Germany) video uretero-renoscope was used for PAULT in patients of the main group; lithotripsy was performed using thulium laser. The results of the study were subjected to statistical processing in order to determine the statistical significance of the differences between the data obtained. Quantitative variables were described using the arithmetic mean (M) and standard deviation (5). Qualitative variables were estimated by absolute and relative frequencies (percentages). The data were considered reliable at p values < 0.05.Results. The average time of surgical intervention in patients of the main group from the moment of placement of the ureteral catheter was 47 ± 12 min, with access without preliminary renal catheterization: 28 ± 4 min. Average time of surgical intervention in patients of the control group: 42.0 ± 10.7 minutes. The presented data indicate a significant (p < 0.05) greater cases' number of complete stone removal among patients of the main group compared with patients in the control group (74.0%).Conclusion. PAULT is preferred among choice treatment methods for patients with proximal ureteral large stones, for whom RULT and ESWL cannot be performed with a high level of “stone-free” rate and a minimum number of complications.

Introduction. Urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract in Western countries of Erope and USA occurs in 1-2 cases per 100,000 populations. Nephroretrectomy remains the main method of treatment of this pathology, however, the role of organ-sparing surgeries increases with the bilateral localization of the tumor process. Due to the rarity of bilateral upper urinary tract lesions with urothelial cancer and the lack of data evaluating the results of organ-sparing surgeries in such situations, each clinical case is of interest. Materials and methods. The article describes a case of surgical treatment of a patient with non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas of both ureters and the pelvis of the right kidney, which were manifested by macrohematuria. Results. The diagnosis was confirmed by computer tomography (CT) and ureteroscopy with tumor biopsy, which revealed a neoplasm of the right kidney pelvis, multiple tumors of the distal part of the right ureter and a solitary neoplasm of the middle part of left ureter. The patient underwent laparoscopic nephrureterectomy on the right with transurethral resection of the bladder wall in the area of the mouth of the right ureter and endoscopic removal of the neoplasm in the middle third of the left ureter using laser energy. At the control examination 1,5 months after the surgical treatment, according to the results of CT, cystoscopy with biopsy of the bladder and ureteroscopy, as well as histological examination of the biopsies, no data for tumor growth were found. At CT 6 months after the surgery, no data for the recurrence of cancer were obtained. Сonclusions. This clinical observation demonstrates the technical feasibility and oncological feasibility of using organ-preserving surgical treatment for bilateral localization of low-grade urothelial carcinoma.

Background. Restoring the quality of life of patients to a level comparable to that of practically healthy people is the most important task of medicine in general. At this stage of development of science, the main goal in the treatment of malignant diseases remains the preservation of life. However, now in oncological practice, methods whose potential allows not only to preserve life as such, but also to ensure the high quality of this life in all its manifestations, are acquiring greater and greater significance.The objective of the study is to compare the quality of life of persons with localized kidney cancer in the early and late periods after surgical treatment by radical nephroectomy and laparoscopic resection of renal tissue.Materials and methods. A questionnaire survey using SF-36 (Short Form-36), designed for a comprehensive assessment of the quality of life associated with health.Results. The quality of life of patients with localized kidney cancer before treatment is reduced due to a number of physical and mental nature, limiting labor, domestic and social activity and causing a feeling of dissatisfaction with their lives in general. These problems are disorders of physical, social and emotional functioning, physical pain, deterioration of general and mental health, limitations of role functioning due to physical and emotional state. After surgical treatment with laparoscopic resection, complete satisfaction of patients with the quality of their life was achieved during the first 1–3 postoperative months; after radical nephroectomy – not earlier than 1–3 years.Conclusion. One of the advantages of laparoscopic resection over radical nephroectomy is a higher quality of life of patients in the early and late periods after the intervention.
