Les scores radiologiques peuvent-t-ils prédire le succès de la NLPC ? Étude comparative du Guy's stone score, du STONE score, du CROES nomogram, et du S-ReSc score

Abstract

The aim of the study is to investigate the factors predictive of surgical outcomes of PCNL and to compare the predictability and accuracy of the Guy's stone score, STONE nephrolithometry, CROES nomogram and S-ReSC score. We reviewed retrospectively the surgical outcomes recorded consecutively and imaging data of preoperative computed tomography scans of patients who underwent PCNL from 2013 to 2016. Patients with asymptomatic residual fragments<4mm were considered stone-free. Preoperative abdominopelvic computerized tomography images of the patients were reviewed and scored according The Guy's stone score, STONE nephrolithometry, CROES nomogram, S-ReSC score by one urologist. A total of 157 PCNLs were reviewed. The overall stone-free rate was 59% (92/157) with a complication rate of 22% (35/157). Stone Burden<542mm3 is significantly associated with stone-free rate (SFR) (P=0.001). On univariate analysis, all the scoring systems were identified as significant factors in terms of SFR. The Guy's Stone Score, the CROES score and the S-ReSC score were associated with complications (P<0.02). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the CROES score was identified as a significant factor in terms of SFR and complications (P<0.01). The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for stone burden, the Guy's, STONE score, CROES core and S-ReSC scores showed good results (0.737/0.674/0.762/0.746/0.710) respectively. Although the four scoring systems were significantly associated with SFR, the STONE score was a significant predictive factor for SFR and complications after PCNL. 3.
