Endocrinology Department, Huriez Hospital, Lille University Hospital, France. Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
- The study compares the effectiveness and safety of three treatments for acute upper urinary tract obstruction due to kidney stones: mini percutaneous nephrostomy (MPCN), micropercutaneous nephrostomy (MicroPCN), and retrograde ureteric stenting (RUS).
- A total of 64 patients were analyzed based on specific criteria, with findings showing no significant differences in infection indicators or complications among the groups.
- MicroPCN was highlighted as particularly beneficial for severely ill patients or those with complicated cases, despite showing the lowest overall patient condition and requiring longer hospital stays compared to the other treatments.
