AI Article Synopsis
- * Most cases involve tumors that act as "leading points," but cases related to kidney stones (urolithiasis) are uncommon and can complicate treatment.
- * The article discusses a case of urolithiasis-related ureteric intussusception that resulted in urosepsis, which was successfully treated using an endourological method.
Article Abstract
Ureteral intussusception is a rare condition that historically occurs as a complication of ureteral neoplasms or iatrogenic endoscopic procedures. Although the exact mechanism of ureteral intussusception is unclear, most reported cases are due to leading points as malignant or benign masses. Urolithiasis related is rarely reported and can be challenging in stone management as it might decrease the spontaneous stone passage rate. In addition, it will increase the complexity of the endoscopic stone management. We present the second reported case of urolithiasis-related ureteric intussusception presented with urosepsis due to obstructive uropathy, successfully managed by an endourological approach.

Department of Urology, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Purpose: Our study aimed to evaluate the effect of COVID-19 on pediatric urology practice in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
Methods: Data of 10 tertiary hospitals in KSA were retrospectively analyzed. Data of outpatient department (OPD) visits and pediatric urology surgical procedures from January 1, 2019, to April 30, 2019, and from January 1, 2020, to April 30, 2020, were extracted.
Effects on renal outcome of concomitant acute pyelonephritis, acute kidney injury and obstruction duration in obstructive uropathy by urolithiasis: a retrospective cohort study.
BMJ Open
November 2019
Internal Medicine, Chung-Ang University Hospital, Seoul, Korea
Objective: Obstruction release from urolithiasis can be delayed with a lack of suggested time for preventing the deterioration of renal function. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of obstruction duration, concomitant acute kidney injury (AKI) or acute pyelonephritis (APN) during the obstruction on the prognosis of renal function.
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Objectives: To analyze the risk factors of uroseptic shock induced by calculous acute pyelonephritis (APN).
Methods: This study included 69 patients (41 were women and 28 were men) who were admitted to our hospital for APN treatment associated with urolithiasis during the period from January 2005 to December 2012. We reviewed the electronic medical records of these patients to analyze risk factors contributing to the development of uroseptic shock from APN in patients with urolithiasis.
Pediatric hospitalizations for upper urinary tract calculi: Epidemiological and treatment trends in the United States, 2001-2014.

Introduction: The incidence of urolithiasis in the pediatric population in the United States has steadily been increasing over the past few decades. Few studies to date have examined trends in the hospitalization and inpatient surgical treatment of urolithiasis in the pediatric population using nationally representative data.
Objective: The aim was to evaluate nationwide trends in the rates of pediatric hospitalization and inpatient surgical activity for upper urinary tract calculi (UUTC) in the United States from 2001 to 2014.
