Description
Summary:To evaluate the safety and feasibility of intraperitoneal laparoscopic surgery in Trendelenburg position (ILSTP) for pyelolithotomy, pyeloplasty, and heminephrectomy in patients with horseshoe kidneys (HSKs). Between March 2021 and March 2024, three patients with HSKs underwent ILSSP. Of these three patients, two with pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction with recurrent kidney stones underwent pyelolithotomy and pyeloplasty, one with symptomatic nonfunctioning left moiety of a HSK was managed with heminephrectomy. Mean operating time was 114 ± 64.8 (44-172) min, and estimated blood loss was 63.3 ± 51.3 (20-120) ml. The mean hospital stay was 3.3 ± 1.5 (2-5) days. There were no major intra- or post-operative complications. ILSTP is a feasible and effective technique for performing pyelolithotomy, pyeloplasty, and heminephrectomy in patients with HSKs.
