Öğe Determining the Stone Free Rate of Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery. Which Radiological Technique? RIRSearch Study Group(Elsevier Science Inc, 2024) Yazici, Cenk Murat; Gonen, Korcan Aysun; Ozman, Oktay; Cakir, Hakan; Basatac, Cem; Akgul, Haci Murat; Cinar, OnderOBJECTIVE To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonography (USG) and kidney ureter bladder radiography (KUB) for the determination of stone-free status of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) according to different stone-free status definitions. MATERIALS AND METHODS The patients who underwent RIRS between September 2021 and September 2022 were prospectively included in the study. All patients underwent a KUB radiography, urinary system USG and noncontrast abdominal tomography at the postoperative first month of the surgery. The sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive factor, and positive predictive factor of USG and KUB on evaluating the stone-free rate were analyzed according to different stone-free status definitions. RESULTS A total of 178 patients were included in the study. The stone-free rates according to stone-free definitions as; residual stone < 4 mm, < 2 mm and no residual stone were 79.2%, 64.0%, and 56.7%, respectively. According to its definition as a residual stone < 4 mm, the sensitivity and specificity of USG were 64.9% and 84.3%, respectively. The sensitivity of USG was 57.1% and 52.5% as the definitions were residual stone < 2 mm and no residual stone, respectively. Addition of KUB to USG slightly increased the sensitivity but did not change the specificity. CONCLUSION USG had high specificity but low sensitivity for evaluating stone-free status after RIRS and addition of KUB did not increase the diagnostic efficacy. Although USG may be used in daily practice, it may overestimate the stone-free status and noncontrast abdominal tomography must be used during the clinical trials to document the exact stone-free rates of RIRS.

Materials and Methods: A total of 1067 patients to whom RIRS operations were performed between 2016 and 2021 were included in the study. The demographic and clinical features of patients, stone properties, per-operative, and post-operative results were analyzed retrospectively. Additionally, the success and complication rates of RIRS according to the clinical and demographic properties of the patients were analyzed. Results: The mean age, stone volume, operation time, and hospitalization time were 46.8 & PLUSMN;15.4, 1011 mm3 (min 19 mm3- max 12.483 mm3), 67.4 & PLUSMN;30.8 min, and 1.83 & PLUSMN;2.3 days, respectively. The stone-free (success) rate after RIRS was 74.5%. In multivariate analysis, pre-op pyuria, number of stones, and stone volume had a significant effect on success. There were 251 (23.5%) patients with post-operative complications. The most common complications were hematuria, fever, and urinary tract infections; they comprised 86.8% of all complications. The number of stones, pre-op ESL, and absence of pre-operative DJ stent had a significant effect on complications in multivariate analysis. Conclusion: Retrograde intrarenal surgery is an efficient minimal invasive procedure for treating urinary system stone disease with low morbidity and high success rates. Although the complication rates are mostly insignificant, there may also be severe vital complications.Öğe The impact of preoperative ureteral stent duration on retrograde intrarenal surgery results: a RIRSearch group study(Springer, 2024) Sahin, Mehmet Fatih; Akgul, Murat; Cakir, Hakan; Ozman, Oktay; Basatac, Cem; Cinar, Onder; Siddikoglu, DuyguA JJ stent placed before retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) may ease the procedure. However, it is important to note that a prolonged duration of double J stent (DJS) placement before RIRS may increase the risk of postoperative urinary tract infection (UTI). Various publications have established this association, although the duration of the DJS before surgery is scarce. Our study investigates the relationship between the pre-stenting period and postoperative UTI and establishes a cut-off period to minimize this risk. We included a total of 500 cases with preoperative DJS prior to RIRS. The patients were divided into five groups according to their preoperative stenting duration (Group 1: 0-15 days; Group 2: 16-30 days; Group 3: 31-45 days; Group 4: 46-60 days; Group 5: >60 days). Demographic and clinical data of the patients, stone properties, operation data, perioperative and postoperative complications (including fever and UTI), hospitalization time, and stone-free rates (SFR) were compared. The groups contained 53, 124, 102, 63, and 158 patients. The demographics of the patients in each group were similar. There was no statistically significant difference between DJS duration, perioperative/postoperative complications, and SFR, except for the ureteral access sheath (UAS) insertion rate. (p = 0.001). The postoperative fever/UTI rate was the lowest in Group 1 (p = 0.046) compared to other durations. Stent duration does not impact SFR. Longer stents enhance UAS insertion success but increase postoperative infection risk. Our results suggest that RIRS should be performed within two weeks, ideally 20 days following stent insertion, to minimize postoperative infection risk.Öğe Is It a Good Strategy to Proceed a Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery Session Sheathless After Ureteral Access Sheath Insertion Failure? A RIRSearch Study(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2023) Ozman, Oktay; Cinar, Onder; Cakir, Hakan; Basatac, Cem; Akgul, Haci Murat; Demirbilek, Muhammet; Sancak, Eyup BurakObjectives: To complement our previous findings regarding effect of ureteral access sheath (UAS) use, we checked RIRSearch database for patients who operated without using UAS. The aim of the study was to understand these new data better by comparing outcomes of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) that continued sheathless after a failed UAS insertion vs those planned and completed sheathless.Materials and Methods: Data of 195 patients who underwent sheathless RIRS for kidney and/or ureteral stones between 2011 and 2021 were retrieved from the database. Patients divided into two groups: cases who were planned and completed sheathless (n = 110, Group 1) and those who proceeded without UAS after insertion failure (n = 85, Group 2). After propensity score matching (PSM), each group consisted of 76 patients.Results: After PSM, stone-free rate for Group 1 (90.8%) was significantly higher than stone-free rate of Group 2 (76.3%) in sheathless RIRS (p = 0.02). Also postoperative complication rate was significantly lower in Group 1 (10.5%) than in Group 2 (27.6%) (p = 0.007). In Group 2, median operating time was longer (60 minutes, interquartile range [IQR]: 40-80) and more unplanned auxilliary procedure (22.4%) was needed than Group 1 (45 minutes, IQR: 40-50 and 3.9%) (both p = 0.001). Stone burden (odds ratio [OR]: 1.002, p = 0.019) and stone density (OR: 1.002, p = 0.003) were associated with high risk of residual stones after RIRS. Higher hydronephrosis grades were associated with increased stone-free rates (OR: 0.588 for residual stone risk, p = 0.024). Cases who completed sheathless by dusting all available stones, as planned preoperatively, were more likely to have stone-free status after RIRS than those who proceeded sheathless after UAS insertion failure (OR: 2.645, p = 0.024).Conclusions: Operation course after UAS insertion failure may be more challenging. In cases who performed without using UAS, surgeons who proceed with procedure sheathless after UAS insertion failure may more frequently run into complications and may fail achieving stone-free status compared with sheathless-planned cases.Öğe Is Psoas Muscle Mass Associated with Failure of Ureteral Access Sheath Insertion and Complications from Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery? A Case-Control Study from RIRSearch group(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2024) Teke, Kerem; Cakir, Hakan; Siddikoglu, Duygu; Ozman, Oktay; Basatac, Cem; Akgul, Haci Murat; Cinar, OnderObjective: To investigate the association between psoas muscle mass (PMM) and failure of ureteral access sheath (UAS) insertion and complications from retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). Materials and Methods: A multicenter retrospective case-control study was conducted that included patients who underwent RIRS despite failure of UAS insertion (Cohort 1) and confounder-matched control patients who underwent RIRS after successful UAS insertion (Cohort 2). For morphometric analysis of PMM, ipsilateral psoas muscle areas (iPMAs) were measured using the coreslicer.com webkit. After comparing demographic, clinical, and complication rates and iPMAs between cohorts, gender-specific median iPMAs were also determined to further subdivide patients in each cohort as either low iPMAs or high iPMAs. Thereafter, patients were also compared in terms of RIRS complications. Results: Cohort 1 included 86 patients whereas Cohort 2 consisted of 124 matched cases. The median (interquartile range) iPMAs were similar between the cohorts: Cohort 1, 11.05 (6.82-14.44) cm(2) versus 11.12 (6.97-13.69) cm(2) for Cohort 2 (P .05). There was a significant inverse relationship between iPMAs with age (r = -0.222) and Charlson comorbidity index (r = -0.180) for all patients (P .05). Perioperative and postoperative complication rates were 8.1% and 16.3% for Cohort 1 and 6.5% and 21% for Cohort 2, respectively. The complication rates were not statistically different between patients with high iPMAs and those with low iPMAs, in male or female patients (P > .05). Conclusions: These results show that failure of UAS was not associated with PMM. Furthermore, since the complication rates were similar between patients with high PMM and low PMM, RIRS may be a reliable treatment choice for sarcopenic patients as well as in nonsarcopenic patients.Öğe Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery Learning Curves of Urology Residents Supervised by an Experienced Endourologist: An RIRSearch Study(Karger, 2023) Sahin, Mehmet Fatih; Ozman, Oktay; Cakir, Hakan; Cinar, Onder; Akgul, Murat; Basatac, Cem; Simsekoglu, Muhammed FatihIntroduction: Although retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) is being performed with increasing frequency, there are only a limited number of studies about the learning curve (LC). This study aimed to analyze the LC of RIRS for five surgeons who underwent the same training. Materials and Methods: The data of the 410 patients who underwent RIRS between April 2017 and 2022 in a single institution, which were performed consecutively by five surgeons, were analyzed. All 50 cases performed by each surgeon were included and numbered consecutively and separately, according to the date of the operation. The combined stone-free rate (SFR) was calculated for each surgeon's cases in the same row, and the LCs were created using moving average and cumulative sum (CUSUM) analyses. Separate multivariable analyses identified each period's (LC vs. beyond) characteristics. Results: The LCs from the combined SFRs reached a plateau after approximately 50 cases for both the CUSUM and the moving average. The effect of stone burden on SFR was more evident in the first 50 cases compared to subsequent cases in the multivariable analyses (p = 0.001 and p = 0.047, respectively). Case order and stone density were independent factors in the first 50 cases (OR: 1.02 [95% CI 1.00-1.04], p = 0.04 and OR: 0.99 [95% CI 0.99-1.00], p = 0.04) but not significant in subsequent cases (OR: 0.97 [95% CI 0.94-1.00], p = 0.1 and OR: 1.00 [95% CI 0.99-1.00], p = 0.7, respectively). Compared to single locations except the lower calyx, the unfavorable effect of the multiple-stone localization on SFR grew in strength after the 50th case (OR: 0.42 [95% CI 0.23-0.78], p = 0.01 and OR: 0.20 [95% CI 0.09-0.46], p < 0.001, respectively). Conclusions: This is the first study reporting on the RIRS LCs of urology residents. While stone burden, density, and multiple-stone localization were the factors determining SFR in the learning period, after completing the LC, the effect of stone burden weakened and multiple-stone localization became stronger.Öğe Safety and Efficacy of Live Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery in Patients with Kindey Stone: Outcomes from a Boutique Course Series Which Complies with the Live Surgery Event Policies(Iniestares, S.A., 2023) Ozman, Oktay; Citgez, Sinharib; Basatac, Cem; Akguel, Haci Murat; Kalender, Goektug; Yazici, Cenk Murat; Tanidir, YiloerenBackground: Live surgery events (LSEs) are frequently organized for sharing the surgical experiences with surgeons at the beginning of their learning curves. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the outcomes and complication rates of patients underwent retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) at LSEs are comparable with regular cases. Methods: Ten courses were organized during 2017-2022. Data of 32 patients who operated in the LSEs were 1:3 matched (for stone burden and surgeon) with the data of patients who underwent regular RIRS within the course periods at the same centers (n = 96). All courses took place in concordance with the latest LSE policies. The primary outcomes were stone-free and complication rates. Fluoroscopy and operation times were the secondary outcomes. Results: Stone-free rates of the groups were similar (84% in LSE and 79% in control group; p = 0.520). Similarly, there were no differences in complication rates (p = 0.428) and fluoroscopy time (p = 0.477). Duration of the LSE cases (82.24 +/- 31.12 min) was slightly but insignificantly longer than regular cases (73.77 +/- 20.89 min, p = 0.092). Moreover, guest surgeons tend to have longer operation time with statistically insignificant prolongation (74.92 +/- 30.43 min for host, 89.52 +/- 28.34 min for guest surgeons, p = 0.064). Conclusions: RIRS can be performed without jeopardizing operation efficiency and patient safety in LSEs. If surgeon is not familiar with operating room set-up or staff, live surgery must be performed by host surgeon to avoid extended operating time.Öğe Safety and Efficacy of Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery in the Solitary Kidney: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis of the RIRSearch Study Groups' Results(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2024) Cinar, Onder; Cakir, Hakan; Ozman, Oktay; Akgul, Murat; Basatac, Cem; Siddikoglu, Duygu; Sancak, Eyup BurakBackground: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) in patients with renal calculi with solitary kidneys (SKs). Materials and Methods: In this retrospective, multicenter study, a matched case-control study was carried out using the data from 522 RIRS patients treated between 2014 and 2021. Patients' demographic data, stone characteristics, operative outcomes, perioperative and postoperative complications, and surgical success were analyzed. All patients were evaluated with noncontrast-enhanced computed tomography (NCCT) preoperatively and 1 month after the surgery. Surgical success was defined as no evidence of remaining residual fragments of <3 mm in the first-month postoperative NCCT images. The case group of 29 patients with SKs (Group 1) treated with RIRS were matched with 76 control patients (Group 2) with bilateral kidneys, who underwent unilateral RIRS by propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis. Results: After PSM analysis, the demographic and clinical data did not differ significantly between the groups. The stone burden was similar between the groups: 733.6 mm3 (range: 50.4-7565.9) versus 991.1 mm3 (range: 201.2-4380.6) (P = .09), respectively. The perioperative complication rates were 13.8% (n = 4) in Group 1 and 11.8% (n = 9) in Group 2 (P = .78). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups for postoperative complication rates (minor complications, classified as Clavien 1 or 2), (6.9% [n = 2] versus 13.2% [n = 10; P = .34]), respectively. Surgical success was 82.8% (n = 24) in Group 1 and 83.6% in Group 2 (P = .92). There was no significant difference between preoperative and postoperative glomerular filtration rate and creatinine values (P = .005). Conclusions: Our results support that RIRS is a safe and effective treatment method in SK patients with similar complication and stone-free rates compared to patients who had bilateral functional kidneys and underwent unilateral RIRS.Öğe Standardizing the Stone Free Definition After Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery(Elsevier Inc., 2024) Yazici, Cenk Murat; Gönen, Korcan Aysun; Ozman, Oktay; Cakir, Hakan; Basatac, Cem; Akgul, Haci Murat; Cinar, Onder[No abstract available]Öğe Standardizing the Stone Free Definition After Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery(Elsevier Science Inc, 2024) Yazici, Cenk Murat; Goenen, Korcan Aysun; Ozman, Oktay; Cakir, Hakan; Basatac, Cem; Akgul, Haci Murat; Cinar, Onder[Abstract Not Available]Öğe The Effect of Reusable Flexible Ureteroscope Aging on the Efficacy and Safety of Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2024) Yazici, Cenk Murat; Cakir, Hakan; Ozman, Oktay; Basatac, Cem; Akgul, Haci Murat; Cinar, Onder; Siddikoglu, DuyguPurpose: Reusable flexible ureteroscopes may lose their mechanical functionality through overuse, which is known as aging of the flexible ureteroscope. Although mechanical deterioration has been shown in several studies, the data about the effect of this situation on the efficacy and safety of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) are missing. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of the aging of flexible ureteroscopes on the efficacy and safety of RIRS.Methods: Patients who had undergone RIRS between 2017 and 2021 at a single center were retrospectively included in the study. Serial surgeries were performed using the same reusable flexible ureteroscope (Storz X2) until it was broken or malfunctioned because of the aging process. Group 1 was formed by the first 10 cases on whom the flexible ureteroscopes were used, representing the youngest period of the instruments, whereas group 2 was composed of the last 10 cases on whom the flexible ureteroscopes were used, representing the oldest phase of the instruments. The operative and postoperative data-including the operation time, hospitalization time, intraoperative complications, postoperative complications, and stone-free rates-were compared between the two groups.Results: A total of five flexible ureteroscopes were included in the study. The number of cases for each flexible ureteroscope ranged between 87 and 133, with a median number of 107 cases. The demographic and clinical properties of patients in both groups were similar. The operation time, lasering time, and total laser pulse were similar between the groups. The stone-free rates in group 1 and group 2 were 82.0% and 78.0%, respectively (p = 0.304). The complication rates were also similar between the groups (p = 0.591).Conclusion: The aging of reusable flexible ureteroscopes did not negatively affect the efficacy and safety of RIRS. Therefore, surgeons may use the reusable types of flexible ureteroscopes until they are totally broken.Öğe The Predictive Factors for Readmission and Rehospitalization After Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery: the Results of RIRSearch Study Group(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2022) Doğan, Çağrı; Yazıcı, Cenk Murat; Akgül, Hacı Murat; Özman, Oktay; Basatac, Cem; Çınar, Onder; Akpınar, HalukPurpose: Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) is a safe and effective treatment option for upper urinary tract stones smaller than 2 cm. Although several studies have documented perioperative and postoperative complications related to RIRS, there exists limited data regarding the readmission and rehospitalization of patients after RIRS. The aims of the study were to document the rates of readmission and rehospitalization after RIRS and to determine the predictive factors for readmission and rehospitalization.Materials and Methods: In this study, we retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent RIRS for the treatment of renal stone disease and were unexpectedly readmitted to the hospital within 30 days after discharge. The hospital admission systems were used to determine readmissions and rehospitalizations. Readmission and rehospitalization rates, causes, and treatment procedures were evaluated. Univariate and multivariate analyses of clinicodemographic properties were performed to evaluate possible predictive factors for readmission and rehospitalization after RIRS.Results: A total of 1036 patients were included in the study. Of these patients, 103 (9.9%) were readmitted to the hospital. Among these readmissions, 35 patients (33.9%) were rehospitalized and 14 (13.6%) underwent surgical intervention. The most common reasons for readmission were renal colic and fever. The presence of preoperative pyuria (odds ratio [OR] 1.86), stone volume (OR 1.54), postoperative complications (OR 3.66), and stone-free status (OR 0.46) were predictive factors for readmission, whereas hospitalization time (OR 1.32), postoperative complications (OR 9.70), and stone-free status (OR 0.06) were predictive factors for rehospitalization after RIRS.Conclusion: Nearly 10% of patients who underwent RIRS were readmitted to the hospital within the first month after discharge, and some were rehospitalized. Preoperative pyuria, high stone volume, presence of postoperative complications, and low stone-free status predicted this readmission and rehospitalization. Clinicians must recognize these predictive factors and inform their patients about this possibility.
