title: [Surgical treatment of complicated forms of coral-like nephrolithiasis].
abstract: The paper presents the results of operative treatment of complicated coral nephrolithiasis in 22 patients. Organ-saving operations were made in exacerbation of pyelonephritis with pyoseptic intoxication, severe renal failure with hyperazotemia. Partial nephrolithotomy (semisectional), sectional nephrolithotomy, resection of the kidney and coral calculus and calicolithotomy were made in 10, 1, 5 and 1 patients, respectively. As a rule, nephrolithotomy was completed with renal drainage by nephrostomy. After resection of a renal segment nephrostomy was not necessary. Postoperative complications did not occur. These occur only in 2 patients with bilateral coral calculi after nephrolithotomy and pyelolithotomy (urinary fistulas). To correct them, nephrostomy was made. One lethal outcome was caused by cardiovascular failure. The above surgery led to normalization of nitrogen-eliminating function of the operated kidney, elimination of intoxication and improvement of the patient's condition. Efficiency of the above operations recommends allows to recommend them for treatment of severe coral nephrolithiasis.
