Treatment of Urosepsis Caused by Lower Ureteral Calculi: A Case Report

2012 
Objective: To evaluate the treatment of urosepsis by reporting a uroseptic case of lower ureteral calculi.Methods: A female uroseptic patient due to lower ureteral calculi was reported here.The processes of anti-shock and percutaneous nephrostomy were performed immediately,and anti-infection treatment followed when the vital sign was stable.Three months later,holmium laser lithotrity was performed and the calculi were removed.Results: Anti-infection treatment after the vital sign was stable was proved to be an effective method of the treatment of urosepsis,while the ureteral calculi was cured by holmium laser lithotrity later.Conclusion: Urosepsis should be treated immediately,and anti-infection treatment should be performed after the control of shock.Lithotrity is a safe therapy for uroseptic patients when shock and renal function were controlled.
