Pre-Op Sildosine and Ureteral Dilation During F-URS
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
We proposed that silodosin administration preoperatively may facilitate ureteral access sheath (UAS) placement prior to flexible ureteroscopy (F-URS) and decrease the incidence of ureteric injury in some difficult cases.

Detailed Description
Urolithiasis is a common urological disorder in the world and has a significant effect on the global health system. The goal of treatment is to achieve the highest stone-free rate (SFR) with the least invasive. Per¬cutaneous nephrolithotomy and flexible ureterorenoscopy (F-URS) are the two main minimally invasive procedures for the treatment of upper urinary tract stones.
The challenging step in flexible ureterorenoscopy (F-URS) is ureteroscopic access sheath (UAS) placement, which facilitates fast and safe access to the ureter and collecting system; improves visibility; reduces the risk of infection by reducing intrarenal pressure. However, in some cases, the acute ureteric injury may occur during ureteroscopic access sheath (UAS) placement.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Sildosin group including 67 patients for whom flexible ureteroscopy (F-URS) will be done with a preoperative daily intake of 8 mg silodosin for one week. |
Drug: Sildosin group
Patients in this group will have flexible ureteroscopy (F-URS) with preoperative daily uptake of 8 mg silodosin for one week.
|
Experimental: Non-Silodosin group including 67 patients for whom flexible ureteroscopy (F-URS) will be done without silodosin intake. |
Procedure: Non-Silodosin group
Patients in this group will have flexible ureteroscopy (F-URS) without silodosin uptake
