ABSTRACT

Introduction. Bladder lithiasis is one of the oldest pathologies known to man and its treatment has been a subject of discussion throughout history. Percutaneous surgery and the use of shock wave lithotripsy has been one of the great advances in the treatment of this pathology, eliminating the use of rigid surgical instruments in the urethra and possible complications from their use.
Materials and methods. Two groups were formed from a total of 21 patients who had undergone percutaneous surgical treatment of bladder lithiasis. Dilators (Amplatz®) were used in the first group and 12mm laparoscopy trocars were used in the second. Both groups were similar with respect to age, sex, number of fragmented stones, stone size and number of days of hospitalization.
Results. There was significant difference in the time in surgery in the comparison of the two groups, favoring the laparoscopy trocar technique.
Conclusions. Bladder lithiasis percutaneous surgery was shown to be a safe, efficient and economic method with a minimum of morbidity.
