[The effect of ureteral stents on the peristalsis of the upper urinary tracts]. 1998

I S Mudraia, and S S Zenkov, and A G Martov, and V I Kirpatovskiĭ

Ureteral motility changes were followed up in 10 patients with hydronephrosis and urolithiasis which were recorded by multichannel impedance ureterography prior to internal drainage and during stent manipulations. The establishment of the ureteral stents reduces peristaltic amplitude and frequency as well as ureteral tonicity. After the stent removal 20% of the examinees showed peristaltic hyperfunction of the ureter. Urodynamic positive effects of the stents consist in better regulation of the motility, elimination of its local disturbance foci, improved coordination of movements of different parts of the upper urinary tracts. For positive results it is important to practice an individual approach to choice of drainage time and stent size. Urodynamic impedance studies can be used in control of endoscopic treatment adequacy.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D004322 Drainage The removal of fluids or discharges from the body, such as from a wound, sore, or cavity.
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D006869 Hydronephrosis Abnormal enlargement or swelling of a KIDNEY due to dilation of the KIDNEY CALICES and the KIDNEY PELVIS. It is often associated with obstruction of the URETER or chronic kidney diseases that prevents normal drainage of urine into the URINARY BLADDER. Hydronephroses
D014513 Ureter One of a pair of thick-walled tubes that transports urine from the KIDNEY PELVIS to the URINARY BLADDER. Ureters
D014517 Ureteral Obstruction Blockage in any part of the URETER causing obstruction of urine flow from the kidney to the URINARY BLADDER. The obstruction may be congenital, acquired, unilateral, bilateral, complete, partial, acute, or chronic. Depending on the degree and duration of the obstruction, clinical features vary greatly such as HYDRONEPHROSIS and obstructive nephropathy.
