Abstract

Objective: To compare abilities of urology residents with attending surgeons in performing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in a clinic where PCNL procedures are performed. Material and Methods: A total of 533 PCNL procedures between November 2004 and January 2012 were divided into two groups: Group 1 (n=431): PCNL procedures performed by experienced urologists and group-2 (n=102): PCNL procedures performed by urology residents under supervision of experienced specialists. Patient&#8217;s age, gender, body mass index, fluoroscopy and operation times, stone burden, rate of blood transfusion, number of access, hospital stay, stone free-status and major complication rates were statistically compared between these two groups. Data were provided as mean +/- SD. Chi-square, student-t and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for statistical analyze and a p-value of &#8804;0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: When compared two groups, there were no significant difference with regards to demographic variables, stone burden, rate of blood transfusion and major complication rates (p>0,05). However, mean hospital stay and stone free rates in group-2 were better than group-1 (p<0,05). Also, mean fluoroscopy and operation time in group-2 were significantly shorter than in group-1. Conclusions: These data demonstrated that the ability of urology residents for performing PCNL operation was found to be sufficient in a clinic where PCNL procedures are routinely performed.

Özet

Amaç: Perkütan nefrolitotomi (PCNL) operasyonu uygulanan bir klinikte üroloji uzmanlık eğitimi alan öğrencilerin PCNL uygulama becerilerinin uzmanlarla karşılaştırılması. Gereçler ve Yöntem: Kasım 2004 - Ocak 2012 tarihleri arasında kliniğimizde yapılan 533 PCNL olgu- su 2 gruba ayrılarak istatistiksel analiz için uygun olan veriler değerlendirildi. Grup-1 (n=431): Kliniğin uzmanlarınca gerçekleştirilen operasyonlar; Grup-2 (n=102): Eğitimlerini bu klinikte tamamlayan asis- tanlarca uzman gözetiminde yapılan operasyonlar olarak belirlendi. Her iki grup; yaş, cinsiyet, vücut kitle indeksi (VKİ), operasyon süreleri, floroskopi süreleri, taş yüzey alanı, taş hacmi, kan transfüzyon oranları, böbreğe girilen port sayısı, hastanede kalış süreleri, taştan arınma oranları ve major komp- likasyonlar göz önünde bulundurularak karşılaştırıldı. İki gruptan elde edilen verilerin istatistiksel olarak karşılaştırılmasında ki-kare, student-t ve Mann-Whitney U testleri kullanıldı ve p 0,05). Ayrıca, her iki grubun komplikasyon oranları ve transfüzyon gerek- sinimleri arasında da anlamlı fark izlenmedi. Ancak, Grup-2 tarafından uygulanan operasyonların ortalama hastanede kalış süreleri Grup-1’e göre anlamlı derecede daha kısa ve taşsızlık oranları da daha yüksek bulundu (p<0,05). Benzer şekilde, floroskopi kullanım ve operasyon süreleri karşılaştırıl- dığında ise, Grup-2’nin verileri Grup-1’e göre anlamlı şekilde daha kısa bulundu. Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın verileri, rutin olarak PCNL uygulanan bir klinikte tıpta uzmanlık öğrencilerinin de PCNL uygulama becerilerinin yeterli düzeye ulaşabileceğini göstermektedir.
