Abstract：
:To evaluate the possible role of ureteral wall thickness (UWT) assessment in the prediction of the success for stent placement in cases with obstructing ureteric stones. 227 adult patients with a single unilateral obstructing ureteral stone requiring internal ureteral stent placement were included. In addition to stone size, the ureteric wall thickness at the impacted stone site and the degree of hydronephrosis were also assigned on CT images. Patients were divided into two subgroups: Group 1: patients in whom internal ureteral stent could not be passed beyond the stone and Group 2: patients in whom an internal ureteral stent was passed successfully. The possible relationship between the UWT values and the success of stent placement, degree of hydronephrosis were comparatively evaluated. The majority of the stones were located in the proximal ureter in Group 1 and the degree of hydronephrosis was also higher in these cases. Moreover, while the mean value of UWT calculated on CT images was 4.3 ± 0.9 mm in Group 1, this value was noted to be 2.5 ± 0.8 mm in cases of group 2. A cutoff UWT value of 3.35 mm was highly predictive for the stent insertion and cases with higher values required additional procedures or percutaneous nephrostomy tube placement. UWT value calculated at the obstructing stone site was found to be predictive enough for the likelihood of internal ureteral stent passage with high sensitivity and specificity. This evaluation may enable the urologist to make the best decision for urinary diversion in such cases.
