Complex renal calculi treated with traditional Chinese medicine Paishi decoction combined with laparoscopic ureterectomy

Abstract

To analyze the effect of traditional Chinese medicine Paishi decoction combined with laparoscopic ureterectomy and lithotripsy in the treatment of complex kidney stones. Totally 100 patients with complicated kidney stones admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to January 2021 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group, with 50 cases in each group. The control group was treated with laparoscopic ureterectomy for stone removal, the experimental group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine Paishi decoction combined with laparoscopic ureterectomy for stone removal. The therapeutic effects of the two groups were compared. The total effective rate of treatment in the control group was 76% and that of the experimental group was 96%. The stone clearing time, time to pain resolution and time to hematuria disappearance time in the experimental group were significantly shorter as compared with the control group. After treatment, the levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group. Traditional Chinese medicine Paishi decoction combined with laparoscopic ureterectomy and lithotripsy for treatment of complex kidney stones ameliorates the treatment efficacy, shortens the time of stone removal, mitigates the clinical symptoms of patients, and helps restore renal function, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
