| Abstract | Background: The management of ureteric obstruction secondary to pelvic malignancies (UOPM) presents a significant challenge. Objectives: Our study aimed to assess the factors affecting the feasibility of interventions for patients with UOPM - including retrograde and antegrade double J (DJ) stenting, and percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) insertion. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent intervention for UOPM over two years, from January 2022 to December 2023. Patients were categorized into groups based on intervention type: Group 1: Retrograde DJ stenting, group 2: Antegrade DJ stenting, and group 3: PCN insertion. Demographic, clinical, radiological, cystoscopic, and laboratory data were compared between the three groups. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), logistic regression, and marginal mean plots were utilized for statistical analysis. Results: Fifty–nine patients were included in the study, consisting of 14 males and 45 females, and the mean age of the study population was 60.1 ± 10.8 years. Retrograde DJ stenting was successfully achieved in 59.3% of patients, with 10.2% undergoing antegrade DJ stenting and 30.5% needing PCN insertion. Serum albumin (P = 0.04), serum creatinine (P = 0.02), albumin creatinine ratio (P < 0.001), and severity of hydroureteronephrosis (HDUN) (P = 0.02) were significantly associated with intervention outcomes. There was an increased likelihood of PCN insertion in higher serum creatinine and lower serum albumin levels. Multinomial logistic regression with univariate and multivariate analysis revealed significance among the above-mentioned variables. Conclusions: Even though DJ stenting remains common, a significant proportion of patients require PCN insertion. Serum albumin, serum creatinine, albumin creatinine ratio, and HDUN severity are significant predictors of intervention success. Further research is warranted to validate these findings and enhance management strategies for UOPM. | en |
