title: [Use of papillotome for antegrade treatment of ureteral stenoses and uretero-ileal anastomotic strictures under radioscopic control. Experimental study in dogs and clinical application].
abstract: A new technique of electro-incision of ureteral stenoses and strictured uretero-enteric anastomoses is presented. Incision is performed with a papillotome, routinely used to achieve endoscopic retrograde sphincterotomy of the duodenal papilla. Group I: 7 ureteral stenoses were performed, on a dog model after surgical ligation of the lumbar ureter. Ten days later, through a percutaneous approach, the papillotome was placed through the stenosis, deflected, and cutting current was applied to incise the stenosis. The IVP performed one month later showed disappearance of the stenosis in 4 cases, a residual stenosis without obstacle in 2 cases and a residual stenosis with obstacle in one case. Group II: 7 strictured uretero-enteric anastomoses on 6 patients. After placement of a percutaneous nephrostomy, a wire guided papillotome was placed into the stenosis. Cutting current was then applied to cut the stenosis. A 18 F ureteral stent was subsequently placed for 8 weeks. Two patients have a patent anastomosis, 7 and 10 months after removal of the stent. One patient died from metastases of bladder tumor. The three remaining patients are still stented. An urinoma occurred in one patient the day following removal of the stent, and was surgically drained. This new technique which combines electro-incision and stenting with a large caliber stent may be proposed as an alternative to surgery or balloon dilatation for the treatment of strictured uretero-digestive anastomoses.
