RESUMO
Chronic kidney disease, diabetes and hypertension are risk factors of kidney function impairment. The relative risk of kidney failure is 1.52 in patients with urinary stone disease. The various techniques used to remove upper urinary tract stones generally do not alter kidney function in patients with normal kidney function and may sometimes improve kidney function or slow its deterioration in patients with kidney disease. Compared to the asynchronous treatment of bilateral renal and ureteral stones, concomitant treatment is associated with higher risk of anuria and the need of additional interventions, in the absence of postoperative stenting. For the treatment of solitary kidney stones, the absence of postoperative stenting increases the risk of postoperative anuria. Moreover, the multiplication of percutaneous nephrolithotomy access tracts increases the risk of bleeding and that of kidney function impairment. METHODOLOGY: These recommendations were developed according to two methods: the Clinical Practice Recommendations (CPR) method and the ADAPTE method, depending on whether the question was considered in the European Association of Urology (EAU) recommendations (https://uroweb.org/guidelines/urolithiasis) [EAU Guidelines on urolithiasis. 2022] and their adaptability to the French context.

Calculus anuria is a catastrophic condition with dire consequences if not treated promptly. The purpose of this study was to identify factors which influence the short-term outcome of patients with calculus anuria. A retrospective analysis was conducted from January 2016 to December 2021, in children up to the age of 18 years, who presented with calculus anuria and required emergency decompression at Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation, Pakistan. One hundred and twenty-five children were included. Majority were born to consanguineous parents and a few of them had positive family history of stone disease. Severe illness was found in 25 (20%) patients and among them 8 (32%) required hemodialysis. Decompression by double J stenting is the preferred intervention in our institute and was done in 106 (85%) children, followed by percutaneous nephrostomy tube in 10 (8%) successfully. A small number of patients, 9 (7%) required both procedures to relieve their obstruction. A significant number of patients, about 115 (92%), attained normal renal functions after intervention. No pertinent factors were identified, relating to incomplete renal recovery in nine (7%) of the patients who unfortunately progressed to chronic kidney disease.

A 67-year-old man presented to the emergency department 22 hours after a trauma to his kidney graft. He was asymptomatic during the first 10 hours, then he became anuric. His serum creatinine level was 2.73 mg/dL (baseline, 0.7 mg/dL), and his hemoglobin concentration was 13.1 g/dL. Computer tomography showed a 4-cm subcapsular hematoma without active bleeding. He underwent urgent decompression of the hematoma, and we did not find any active bleeding or parenchymal laceration. Urinary output had already recovered by the end of surgery without early or late complications. In conclusion, subcapsular hematoma, complicating a traumatic event on a kidney graft, can lead to a progressive parenchymal compression resulting in anuria. So, although in the absence of anemia, such events require urgent surgical decompression. Symptoms cannot be immediate, so all the graft trauma should be investigated with early ultrasound. Little is known in the case of major renal trauma but mildly symptomatic. Probably surgical exploration is better than observation to prevent possible early and late complications such as organ rejection or a Page kidney.

Kidney transplantation (txp) in infants has recently made much progress but provides a unique challenge in infants anuric since birth. Little data exists on outcome of renal txp recipients with anuria since birth. Retrospective chart review was done for outcome of 27 children with wt ≤15 kg and they were divided into two groups: Group A (N=21) with urine output and Group B (N=6) anuric since birth had their urological complications and long-term outcome compared. Median age at the time of txp 18 vs 23 months, mean wt 10.8 vs 11.8 kg, and mean ht 77 cm in both, mean follow-up post-txp: 9.4 vs 5.6 years, and neurological problems were noted in 48% and 33% in Group A and Group B. There was no graft thrombosis or post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease and only two rejections. Anuric Group B were older, had more post-txp urological surgeries (66% vs 19%) and UTIs (66% vs 38%) compared to Group A. The overall graft survival at 1, 5, and 10 years was 96%, 86%, and 70%; patient survival at 1, 5, and 10 years was 96%, 85%, and 85%. Long-term graft outcomes in small children, anuric prior to txp, were excellent despite higher rates for UTIs and urological complications.

OBJECTIVES: To compare percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) tube vs JJ ureteric stenting as the initial urinary drainage method in children with obstructive calcular anuria (OCA) and post-renal acute renal failure (ARF) due to bilateral ureteric calculi, to identify the selection criteria for the initial urinary drainage method that will improve urinary drainage, decrease complications and facilitate the subsequent definitive clearance of stones, as this comparison is lacking in the literature. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A series of 90 children aged ≤12 years presenting with OCA and ARF due to bilateral ureteric calculi were included from March 2011 to September 2013 at Cairo University Pediatric Hospital in this randomised comparative study. Patients with grade 0-1 hydronephrosis, fever or pyonephrosis were excluded. No patient had any contraindication for either method of drainage. Stable patients (or patients stabilised by dialysis) were randomised (non-blinded, block randomisation, sealed envelope method) into PCN-tube or bilateral JJ-stent groups (45 patients for each group). Initial urinary drainage was performed under general anaesthesia and fluoroscopic guidance. We used 4.8-6 F JJ stents or 6-8 F PCN tubes. The primary outcomes were the safety and efficacy of both groups for the recovery of renal functions. Both groups were compared for operative and imaging times, complications, and the period required for a return to normal serum creatinine levels. The secondary outcomes included the number of subsequent interventions needed for clearance of stones. Additional analysis was done for factors affecting outcome within each group. RESULTS: All presented patients completed the study with intention-to-treat analysis. There was no significant difference between the PCN-tube and JJ-stent groups for the operative and imaging times, period for return to a normal creatinine level and failure of insertion. There were significantly more complications in the PCN-tube group. The stone size (>2 cm) was the only factor affecting the rates of mucosal complications, operative time and failure of insertion in the JJ-stent group. The degree of hydronephrosis significantly affected the operative time for PCN-tube insertion. Grade 2 hydronephrosis was associated with all cases of insertion failure in the PCN-tube group. The total number of subsequent interventions needed to clear stones was significantly higher in the PCN-tube group, especially in patients with bilateral stones destined for chemolytic dissolution (alkalinisation) or extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL). CONCLUSION: We recommend the use of JJ stents for initial urinary drainage for stones that will be subsequently treated with chemolytic dissolution or ESWL, as this will lower the total number of subsequent interventions needed to clear the stones. This is also true for stones destined for ureteroscopy (URS), as JJ-stent insertion will facilitate subsequent URS due to previous ureteric stenting. Mild hydronephrosis will prolong the operative time for PCN-tube insertion and may increase the incidence of insertion failure. We recommend the use of PCN tube if the stone size is >2 cm, as there was a greater risk of possible iatrogenic ureteric injury during stenting with these larger ureteric stones in addition to prolongation of operative time with an increased incidence of failure.

Clot anuria in a solitary functioning kidney is an emergency situation. Haematuria with clot anuria in an early postoperative period represents a challenge, as treatment options are limited. Manipulation of the anastomotic site may lead to anastomotic disruption and urinoma while use of thrombolytic therapy poses the danger of increasing haematuria. We report a case of anuria due to clot retention in the upper tract following laparoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty in a solitary functioning kidney, managed successfully with double guide wire technique.

OBJECTIVES: To describe and evaluate our protocol for management of children≤4years old with obstructive calcular anuria (OCA) and acute renal failure (ARF) to improve selection of initial urinary drainage (ID) method and to facilitate subsequent definitive stone management (DSM) as studies discussing this special group of patients are still few. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with a contraindication to any method of ID were excluded. Decision (percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) or double J (JJ) stent) was based on degree of hydronephrosis and planned DSM. We used 4.8-5Fr JJ or 6-8Fr PCN under general anesthesia and fluoroscopic guidance. According to our protocol, JJ is inserted for hydronephrosis≤grade 1. When the hydronephrosis is >grade 1, patients with radiolucent stones were treated by JJ whatever the site of the stone. When the stones were radiopaque, PCN was reserved for stones in a solitary functioning kidney and bilateral ureteric stones prepared for subsequent bilateral ureterolithotomy (or stone prepared for ureterolithotomy in a solitary kidney). After normalization of renal functions, DSM was staged attacking only one side before discharge. Both sides were cleared at the same session in cases with bilateral ureterolithotomy. Renal or ureteric stones suitable for SWL in a solitary kidney were treated with percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PNL) or ureteroscopy. This was followed also in patients with bilateral stones suitable for SWL by clearing one side using ureteroscopy or PNL before discharge. Open surgery (OS) was reserved for cases with failed ureteroscopy or PNL, for ureteric stones>2.5 cm in size or very large volume complex renal stones. Stone free rate (SFR) was evaluated by CT. Our protocol was evaluated as regard recovery of renal functions, complications, and number of interventions to clear stones. RESULTS: This study included 62 boys and 22 girls presented with anuria for 1-4 days. JJ and PCN were inserted in 105 and 30 ureterorenal units (URU), respectively. Creatinine returns normal within 72 h. JJ insertion formed a part of DSM in 78/159 (49%) URU (stones prepared for extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy or oral chemolytic dissolution therapy). PCN was the ideal tract for subsequent PNL in 11/159 (6.9%) URU. Accordingly, ID participated by 55.97% in DSM. Both operative and imaging times were slightly longer with PCN than JJ. There was no statistically significant difference in the insertion success or mean period to return to normal chemistry. Complications of both methods were mild and without any significant difference. Endourologic procedures constituted the majority of our interventions. Open surgical and endoscopic interventions for clearance of stones (including ID, treatment conversion and 2ry procedures) were done once for 25 patients, twice for 43 patients while it was needed three times for 16 patients. Total number of interventions was 149 procedures. SFR was 94%. CONCLUSION: Our protocol ensures adequate ID with minimal complications when using our selection criteria in children≤4 years in age with OCA and ARF. It also minimizes number of subsequent procedures to clear stones. Complications and success in insertion and drainage were equivalent in PCN and JJ groups.

OBJECTIVE: Urolithiasis in infants can cause considerable morbidity. The literature regarding calcular anuria in this age group is very defective. Our aim was to evaluate impact of intervention on renal recoverability in these infants. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A series of 24 patients presenting with obstructive calcular anuria were included in this study. Mean age was 16.5 ± 6.2 months. They were treated either by initial urinary diversion or definitive endoscopic (ureteroscopy or JJ stenting with medical alkalinization) or open surgical (ureterolithotomy or pyelolithotomy) treatment. RESULTS: Mean serum creatinine was 5.8 ± 2.6 mg/dl. Initial peritoneal dialysis and/or urinary diversion was needed in 11 patients (45.8%). Open surgical treatment was applied in 5 (20.8%), endoscopic treatment was applied in 15 (62.5%), while combined treatment was applied in 4 (16.6%) patients. All patients had normal serum creatinine on discharge. Three (12.5%) had residual stones which were cleared by 2ry ureteroscopic intervention at 6 months. The overall complication rate in this study was 12.5% in the form of postoperative leakage (1) and postoperative fever (2). No mortality or development of chronic renal failure was reported at 6 months follow up. In comparison with these results, a previous study carried out in our centre on an older age group had a higher complication rate (28%) with higher mortalities and lower renal function recoverability rate (94%). CONCLUSIONS: Appropriate and timely medical and surgical management of calcular anuria will mostly lead to full recovery of renal functions. In comparison with older children, renal prognosis in those less than 2 years seems more favorable.

OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate a rare case of urological pathology, we report a combination of a single kidney and ureteral atresia. The treatment concept and outcome are outlined. PATIENT AND METHOD: Antenatal ultrasound had revealed urinary ascites which lead to caesarean section in the 34th gestational week. Persisting anuria was confirmed postnatally and peritoneal dialysis started on the second day of life. Subsequent laparotomy revealed ureteral atresia after 3 cm of patent ureter. We created an ileum conduit after discussing various other therapeutic options. RESULT AND CONCLUSION: A follow up of 12 months has shown steady function of the stoma with stable renal parameters. An ileal conduit represents a good option if high drainage is necessary in early childhood.

Postnatal urinary ascites is a rare occurrence compared with other causes of peritoneal effusion at this age and its frequency in prenatal diagnosis. Spontaneous rupture of the bladder was diagnosed in a premature male infant presenting with postnatal ascites and anuric renal insufficiency. Surgical repair was required. No predisposing factor was associated with this rare complication. The urinary origin of the ascites was diagnosed based on the biochemical composition, allowing us to understand its mechanism and to treat it.

INTRODUCTION: Posterior urethral valve is a common cause of renal failure in children. This disorder often results in small bladder and low compliance, which frequently requires bladder augmentation. Herein, we report our experience in 5 children with "valve bladder" who underwent renal transplantation without preliminary bladder enlargement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirteen children with valve bladder undergoing renal transplantation were considered candidates for bladder augmentation. All had oligoanuria at transplantation. In 8 children, bladder augmentation was performed before renal transplantation; in the remaining 5, the decision was postponed until after transplantation. These children underwent transplantation with a ureteral reimplant, and a suprapubic catheter was in place for 2 months. Periodically, renal function, bladder capacity, and compliance were assessed, and renal ultrasonography was performed. RESULTS: At 1-, 2-, 4-, and 6-month follow-up, the 5 children who did not undergo bladder augmentation demonstrated normal renal function, with improved bladder capacity and absence of hydronephrosis. No significant difference was evident between the 2 groups (augmented vs nonaugmented) insofar as renal function, bladder capacity, or hydronephrosis. After transplantation, bladder augmentation was not deemed necessary in any of the 5 children because of complete restoration of clinical and urodynamic parameters. CONCLUSION: Renal transplantation can be performed safely without preemptive bladder augmentation. Ureteral reimplantation is recommended, even in patients with small valve bladders. The decision about the need for bladder augmentation should be made only after normal diuresis is restored.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss an unusual case of occult ureteropelvic junction obstruction. CASE: A premature male infant with severe, unilateral hydronephrosis presented to the emergency room with 20 h of dry diapers. Placement of urethral catheter did not return urine. Imaging revealed persistent hydronephrosis on the previously affected side and new-onset hydronephrosis with perirenal fluid on the contralateral side. Patient was taken to the operating room and forniceal rupture from occult ureteropelvic junction obstruction with urinary ascites was identified. The obstruction was surgically repaired at that time and his postoperative course was uncomplicated. DISCUSSION: While most agree on postnatal evaluation for some children with antenatal hydronephrosis, there is no consensus as to the timing and frequency of evaluation. The risk of significant obstruction in children with low grades of hydronephrosis is very low, and many are not followed. This is a rare case in which low-grade postnatal hydronephrosis resulted in significant clinical obstruction.

A 50-year-old male with anuria, creatinine of 5.5 and potassium of 6.5 was referred to our hospital for hemodialysis. Before hemodialysis could be initiated, his blood pressure dropped and liver function tests were found to be increasing rapidly. This prompted us to look for cardiac causes of liver ischemia. An echocardiogram was non-diagnostic due to the patient's obese body habitus. Pericardial fluid was documented on CT scan. Pericardiocentesis was performed and nearly 1500 ml of bloody pericardial fluid was removed. This resulted in immediate urine output, with 80 ml in the first hour, and an increase in blood pressure.

We present a case of anuric renal failure in a forty-nine year old woman secondary to bilateral renal artery occlusion that responded favorably to surgical revascularization. The patient presented with a three day history of diminished to absent urine output. The patient's BUN and creatinine were 52 mg/dL and 9.3 mg/dL, respectively. The patient remained anuric and required hemodialysis. Chronic atherosclerotic occlusion of both renal arteries with reconstitution of the renal arteries via collateral support was seen on angiography. Twenty-six days after presentation, the patient had aortorenal artery bypass using a saphenous vein graft. Postoperatively the patient had excellent diuresis with the creatinine improving to a nadir of 1.5 mg/dL. This case is a demonstration that the kidneys can remain viable with subacute renal artery occlusion in the presence of adequate collateral blood flow. Surgical or transcatheter renal revascularization should be considered in appropriate patients.

Ureteric valves represent a very rare etiology of ureteral obstruction. We experienced an unusual case of bilateral distal ureteric valves that presented as bilateral primitive obstructed megaureters with anuria at the age of 40 days. To our knowledge, this is the second case of bilateral involvement of distal ureteric valves reported in the literature. Bilateral ureteral valves should be included in the differential diagnosis of bladder outlet obstruction, as well as bilateral primitive obstructed megaureters in children. Excision and ureteral reimplantation is curative.

Candidiasis of the lower urinary tract is common in immunocompromised patients. Diabetes and chronic indwelling catheter are two common risk factors for such opportunistic infections. However, upper urinary candidiasis is rare. Further, bilateral synchronous involvement of kidneys and ureter is extremely rare. Treatment usually requires relief of obstruction by percutaneous drainage of the kidney and systemic infusion or local irrigation of antifungal agents. When these measures fail, percutaneous surgical debulking of the fungal bezoar is indicated. We present a case of obstructive anuria due to fungal bezoar in both the pelvicalyceal system and ureter managed by bilateral synchronous endoscopic removal of fungal bezoar.

A 76-year-old man received intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) instillations for recurrent superficial bladder cancer. He had undergone right nephroureterectomy for right renal pelvic cancer 9 months previously. He presented with anuria and left hydronephrosis after the fourth instillation, with serum creatinine increasing up to 15.7 mg/dL. Percutaneous nephrostomy was indwelled, and antegrade pyelography showed left vesicoureteral obstruction. There was no sign of recurrent bladder cancer or ureteral cancer. He started spontaneous voiding on day 4 and the nephrostomy was removed on day 8. Most of the side-effects of intravesical BCG therapy are minor, and major adverse reactions are rare. Life-threatening ureteral obstruction would be a rare complication of BCG immunotherapy. Although BCG intravesical instillation after nephroureterectomy is a common practice, special care should be taken of renal function in patients with unilateral kidney during BCG therapy.

We report a case of a 46-year-old white male with renal graft artery stenosis who developed acute renal shutdown with total anuria while on the ACE inhibitor lisinopril, one week following the discontinuation of aspirin. The serum creatinine was 8.5 mg/dl. Doppler ultrasound and MAG3 scintigraphy of the grafted kidney were highly suggestive of a viable but nonfunctioning kidney. A femoro-femoral bypass for total thrombosis of the right common iliac artery was performed distal to the occlusion. Immediate diuresis was obtained after establishing the bypass. Serum creatinine dropped to 1.35 mg/dl three days later. In this case we believe that the collateral circulation played a significant role in immediate recovery of kidney function by maintaining renal perfusion pressure and preventing acute tubular necrosis (ATN). We also believe that the ACE inhibitor might have contributed to salvaging the kidney by improving medullary oxygen balance and maintaining adequate medullary blood flow.
