Anatomy

Indications

  • Flank pain
  • Hematuria
  • Hypertension
  • Compression of the pelvicalyceal system

Contra Indications

  • Infectious renal cysts
  • Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD)
  • Cystic tumor of the kidney
  • Coagulopathy
  • Uncertainty about the relationship between the cyst and clinical symptoms

Workup

  • Cliniacl assesment
  • Ultrasound (US) examination
  • Computerized Tomography

Preproduceral

DRUGS TO STOP
  • Correction of anticoagulation if necessary

Material

Essentials

  • Ultrasound
  • Chlorhexidine
  • Standard angiography set
  • Lidocaine 1% 10 ml
  • Contrast medium
  • Heparine 5.000 IU/ml
  • Heparinized saline (5.000 IU/l)
  • 6F Introducer
  • 0.035" Amplatz Stiff guidewire
  • 8F multisidehole pigtail catheter
  • Sclerosing Agent: 96% alcohol

Non Essentials

Positioning

Prone/oblique

Steps

  • Time-out
  • Sterile washing and draping
  • Local anaestectic under ultrasound guidance
  • Ultrasound guided puncture of the cyst
  • Over the wire introduction of the pig-tail catheter
  • Aspiration of the cyst content
  • Installation of diluted contrast medium to exclude a connection with the collecting system (50% of the aspirated volume)
  • Aspiration of the diluted contrast medium
  • Installation of 98% alcohol (30% of the aspirated volume) with a max of 250 ml
  • Alcohol remained in the cyst cavity for 2 hours
  • Patient should rotate (at least semi-rotate) every 10 minutes
  • Alcohol is then evacuated
  • Catheter was removed
  • Sign-out

Tips & Tricks

  • In case of severe pain remove the alcohol and terminate the procedure
  • Alcohol concentration in blood is not tested routinely.
  • For giant cysts with recurrence and loin pain after initial treatment, additional prolonged catheter drainage is used successfully

Complications

COMPLICATIONS

Postoperative

DRUGS TO START
  • Patients rested in bed for 2 hours after the procedure
  • Vital signs every 15 minutes for 2 hours

Follow up

Report

Time-out
Steriel wassen en afdekken. Lokale anesthesie met 1% Lidocaine. Echogeleide punctie van de cyste. Introductie van de pigtailkatheter over de voerdraad. Aspiratie van de cyste-inhoud. Installatie van verdund contrastmiddel (50% van het geaspireerde volume), een connectie met het verzamelsysteem wordt niet aangetoond. Aspiratie van het verdunde contrastmiddel. Installatie van 98% alcohol (30% van het geaspireerde volume) met een maximum van 250 ml. De alcohol bleef 2 uur in de cysteholte. Patiënt elke 10 minuten gedraaid (minimaal semi-rotatie). De alcohol wordt vervolgens geëvacueerd. De katheter werd verwijderd.
