Urolithiasis prevalence is 2-20% according to different geographic characteristics in different populations. In this study, we aimed to present the distribution of operation numbers for both percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) in terms of age and stone size in order to reveal the changes over the years. Between January 2010 and March 2016, 1814 patients were operated for the treatment of renal stones. Patients were directed to the two different operations according to the surgeons' choices: RIRS or PCNL. Prospectively collected data was retrospectively reviewed. In the years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016, the number of RIRS applied for the treatment of renal stones was 25, 87, 96, 147, 166, 174, and 66, respectively. RIRS was significantly preferred more than PCNL for stones <1.5cm. Examining the ages, there was no different data described as above for stone sizes. Despite RIRS is the new trend for treating stone disease, PCNL remains its important role for especially the larger stone sizes. RIRS is the raising trend for small sizes. |
