    Objective: This study aimed to compare the right and left side laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) outcomes of a single center.Materials and Methods: The outcomes of patients who underwent LDN in our clinic between 2008 and 2020 were evaluated retrospectively. Two groups were consisted according to the side of the donor kidney. The gender, age, body mass index, duration of operation, amount of bleeding, warm ischemia time, drain removal time, and duration of hospitalization and complications were compared between groups.Results: A total of 314 patients were included in the study. Sixty-six patients underwent right LDN and 248 underwent left LDN. There was no difference between groups in terms of age, duration of operation, amount of bleeding, warm ischemia time, and complications (p>0.05). However, drain removal time and duration of hospitalization were longer in the left LDN group (p<0.05).Conclusions: The right LDN had similar intraoperative outcomes with the left LDN. However, failure on meticulous dissection of the lymphatic structures during left LDN might cause chylous drainage and prolonged hospitalization time.

    15 and 30 w holmium: Yag laser lithotriptor in ureteroscopic lithotripsy: Which one is more effective and safe?
    (Mary Ann Liebert, 2021-05-05) Kaygısız, Onur; Aydın, Yavuz Mert; Çicek, Mehmet Çağatay; Çelen, Sinan; Coşkun, Burhan; Kılıçarslan, Hakan; Kaygısız, Onur; KAYGISIZ, ONUR; Aydın, Yavuz Mert; AYDIN, YAVUZ MERT; Çicek, Mehmet Çağatay; ÇİÇEK, MEHMET ÇAĞATAY; Coşkun, Burhan; COŞKUN, BURHAN; Kılıçarslan, Hakan; KILIÇARSLAN, HAKAN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Üroloji Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-9790-7295; 0000-0002-6287-6767; 0000-0002-0471-5404; 0000-0002-8242-9921; JCO-5169-2023; AFP-3055-2022; L-9439-2019
    Background: Holmium:yttrium-aluminium-garnet (Ho:YAG) laser lithotripsy with ureteroscopy (URS) was a safe and successful treatment option for pediatric ureteral stones. We aimed to comparatively evaluate the outcomes of 15 and 30 W Ho:YAG laser lithotriptors in pediatric ureter stones.Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 55 children who underwent ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy to treat ureter stone size up to 15 mm between September 2009 and March 2020. Groups were formed according to the laser lithotriptor power 15 W (Group 15: n = 32), 30 W (Group 30: n = 23). The efficiency of laser lithotriptors was compared between the groups.Results: The age, gender, and stone characteristics (longest stone diameter, density, location and multiple stones) were similar between the groups. In the postop first month, stone-free status was achieved in all cases except one child in Group 15. The median operative time was significantly shorter in Group 30 (40 minutes) than in Group 15 (52.5 minutes) (P = .010). Clavien-Dindo class (CDC) 2 complications occurred in 2 children in both groups (P = .597). Although ureteric stenosis was observed in 1 patient in Group 15, no ureteric stenosis was seen in Group 30 during follow-up (median 16.1 months). Length of hospital stay (LoHS) and stone-free rates were similar between groups.Conclusion: URS with 15 and 30 W Ho:YAG laser lithotriptors is an effective treatment option for pediatric ureteral stones with a high success rate and low complication rates. In brief, 30 W Ho:YAG laser lithotriptors should be preferred over 15 W lithotriptors due to their shorter operative time with similar success rate.
