Abstract

Treatment of kidney and ureter multiple calculi is a difficult procedure in urology. It is especially difficult to eliminate the high burden stones in a one‑stage operation. When a patient has had only one kidney since he/she was born (a condition termed ‘solitary kidney’), the conservation of the renal function is especially important. A series of combined surgery techniques have been developed, including endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy sandwich therapy and laparoscopy‑assisted percutaneous nephrolithotomy, but not laparoscopy or endoscopy cooperative surgery. The present study described the case of a patient with a solitary kidney and ureter who developed multiple calculi. This condition led to hydronephrosis and severe anuria for 3 days. Urinary ultrasound indicated hydronephrosis of the left kidney and several stones were detected. The maximum renal stone was sized ~2.7x0.8 cm. In addition, a maximally sized stone of 2.9x0.9 cm was found in the left upper ureter. The patient had only one kidney, the right kidney was absent. Laboratory examinations revealed severe renal dysfunction. A percutaneous nephrostomy was immediately performed on the left kidney. Laparoscopy, flexible ureteroscopy, rigid ureteroscopy and ureteroscope pneumatic lithotripsy were used to eliminate all the stones in one stage. The patient recovered well and was discharged on the eighth day post‑surgery. The present case report highlighted that the conservation of kidney function is critical in the treatment of anuria lasting for 3 days in a patient with calculus. When the situation arises, laparoscopy combined with ureteroscopy cooperative surgery was shown to be a good choice for one‑stage clearance of complex stones in patients with a solitary kidney and ureter.
