ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Acute kidney disease (AKD) is a recently described syndrome consisting of kidney function abnormalities lasting less than 3 months. Little is known regarding AKD following ureteroscopy (URS) and laser lithotripsy.OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the occurrence and evolution of AKD in stone patients treated with URS. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Data from 284 patients treated with URS for urinary stones were retrospectively analyzed. According to the KDIGO 2020 criteria, AKD was defined as postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) occurrence, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decrease ≥ 35%, or serum creatinine (SCr) increase ≥ 50%. AKI was defined as SCr increase ≥ 0.3 mg/dL or ≥ 50%. AKD evolution was evaluated 60 days post-URS. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Univariable (UVA) and multivariable (MVA) logistic regression analyses tested the association of patients' characteristics and perioperative data with the occurrence of AKD.RESULTS:
Overall, postoperative AKD occurred in 32 (11.3%) patients. Recovery from AKD was found in 26 (82%) patients and persistent AKD occurred in 6 (18%) patients. At UVA, age at surgery (p = 0.05), baseline SCr (p = 0.02), baseline CKD category (p = 0.006), Charlson comorbidity index (p = 0.01), operative time (p = 0.04) and postoperative complications (< 0.001) were associated with AKD. At MVA, CKD category (OR 2.99, 95% CI = 1.4-6.3; p = 0.004), operative time (OR 1.01, 95% CI = 1.001-1.018; p = 0.023) and postoperative complications (OR 3.5, 95% CI = 1.46-8.49; p = 0.005) were independent predictors of AKD.CONCLUSIONS:
AKD is a frequent complication in patients treated with URS. Moreover, AKD persists in a non-neglectable percentage of patients at medium-term follow-up. Therefore, nephrological assessment should be considered, especially in high-risk patients. Current findings should be considered for the peri-operative management of stone patients.
