ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the predictive capacity of the nephrolithometry scoring systems (GSS, STONE, CROES and S-ReSC) and stone surface regarding success and complications following percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).METHODS:
We studied 392 patients who had undergone PCNL in our center. Only patients with a non-contrast CT (nâ¯=â¯240) were finally included for analysis. The predictive capacities for success and complications of the different scoring systems were evaluated using ROC curves and their area under the curve (AUC).RESULTS:
Regarding success, the S-ReSC system had the highest predictive capacity with an AUC of 0.681 (95% CI 0.610-0.751), followed by the CROES with 0.667 (95% CI 0.595-0.738), the STONE with 0.654 (95% CI 0.579-0.728) and finally the GSS with 0.626 (95% CI 0.555-0.698). The stone surface as a single variable had an AUC of 0.641 (95% CI 0.565-0.718). As for complications, the S-ReSC had the highest AUC with 0.664 (95% CI 0.57-0.758), followed by STONE with 0.663 (95% CI 0.572-0.755), GSS with 0.626 (95% CI 0.555).-0.698) and CROES with 0.614 (95% CI 0.518-0.7). The stone surface alone had an AUC of 0.616 (95% CI 0.522-0.715).CONCLUSION:
The nephrolithometry scales analyzed show a moderate predictive capacity for success and complications in patients undergoing PCNL in our center. Moreover, stone surface as an independent variable demonstrates moderate predictive capacity for both outcomes.Palavras-chave
