Özet

Objective: To investigate the association between psoas muscle mass (PMM) and failure of ureteral access sheath (UAS) insertion and complications from retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). Materials and Methods: A multicenter retrospective case-control study was conducted that included patients who underwent RIRS despite failure of UAS insertion (Cohort 1) and confounder-matched control patients who underwent RIRS after successful UAS insertion (Cohort 2). For morphometric analysis of PMM, ipsilateral psoas muscle areas (iPMAs) were measured using the coreslicer.com webkit. After comparing demographic, clinical, and complication rates and iPMAs between cohorts, gender-specific median iPMAs were also determined to further subdivide patients in each cohort as either low iPMAs or high iPMAs. Thereafter, patients were also compared in terms of RIRS complications. Results: Cohort 1 included 86 patients whereas Cohort 2 consisted of 124 matched cases. The median (interquartile range) iPMAs were similar between the cohorts: Cohort 1, 11.05 (6.82-14.44) cm2 versus 11.12 (6.97-13.69) cm2 for Cohort 2 (P ˃ .05). There was a significant inverse relationship between iPMAs with age (r = −0.222) and Charlson comorbidity index (r = −0.180) for all patients (P ˂ .05). Perioperative and postoperative complication rates were 8.1% and 16.3% for Cohort 1 and 6.5% and 21% for Cohort 2, respectively. The complication rates were not statistically different between patients with high iPMAs and those with low iPMAs, in male or female patients (P > .05). Conclusions: These results show that failure of UAS was not associated with PMM. Furthermore, since the complication rates were similar between patients with high PMM and low PMM, RIRS may be a reliable treatment choice for sarcopenic patients as well as in nonsarcopenic patients.
