Abstract

The study was conducted on 102 patients diagnosed with infectious hydronephrosis due to ureteral stones with indications for emergency treatment at Hanoi Medical University Hospital from January 2018 to July 2023. The results showed that of 102 patients, 52.9% of patients received percutaneous renal pelvis drainage, 17.6% had a JJ catheter placement and 29.4% had ureteroscopic lithotripsy. After treatment, the proportion of patients with fever was 20.6%, decreased compared to before surgery (54.9%) (p < 0.01). There were no complications of shock during and after surgery or serious complications in the number of patients assigned to endoscopic lithotripsy. Bacteria isolated in urine were mainly E. Coli (57.4%). Average hospital stays: 11.76 ± 7.55 days. Conclusion: Percutaneous pyelonephritis drainage under imaging and JJ catheter placement is safe and effective for infectious hydronephrosis. However, ureteroscopic lithotripsy is indicated in some cases where the patient's overall condition is stable, the renal pelvis is not dilated and there is no pyelonephritis.
