Percutaneous transrenal retrieval of fractured nephrostomy tube under fluoroscopic guidance.
Percutaneous nephrostomy is a safe procedure, performed routinely by interventional radiologists, and has a low complication rate. We report an unusual case of a fractured nephrostomy tube, retained within the kidney, having its fractured end trapped within the healed retroperitoneal tract. The catheter was retrieved by snaring it, using a percutaneous access to the collecting system. We descri...
متن کاملSuccess, Effectiveness and Safety of Combined Sonographic and Fluoroscopic Guided Percutaneous Nephrostomy in Malignant Ureteral Obstruction
Result: PCN was successful in 98.55% units. Significant improvement in renal function occurred in 88% patients. Mean urea dropped from 89.68mg/dl ±39.95 to 65.34±16.55 mg/d and mean S. creatinine decreased from 4.31±2.84 to 2.61±1.21 between 14-35 days. No statistically significant increase was seen in renal parenchymal thickness. Major complications developed in 4.33% while minor in 50.72% PCN...

متن کاملPercutaneous Sacroplasty for Sacral Metastatic Tumors Under Fluoroscopic Guidance Only
Percutaneous sacroplasty is a safe and effective procedure for sacral insufficient fractures under CT or fluoroscopic guidance; although, few reports exist about sacral metastatic tumors. We designed a pilot study to treat intractable pain caused by a sacral metastatic tumor with sacroplasty. A 62-year-old man and a 38-year-old woman with medically intractable pain due to metastatic tumors of S...
متن کاملPercutaneous needle nephrostomy.
Percutaneous nephrostomy is a simple technique for temporary drainage of an obstructed kidney. Under local anaesthesia a ureteric catheter is passed through a Vim-Silverman needle into the renal pelvis and is connected to a drainage bag. Seven cases (six successful) in which this method was used are described and the indications are discussed. It has been free from complications, is acceptable ...
